STANZA-1 “He stalks in his vivid stripes
STANZA-1 “He stalks in his vivid stripes. The few steps of his cage, On pads of velvet quiet, In his quiet rage.” The tiger, a mighty creature moves to and fro with his limited steps inside the cage. He moves quietly on his soft velvety pads (paws) expressing his anger quietly because all his freedom is locked inside the cage. He finds himself quiet helpless there.
12
STANZA-2 “He should be lurking in shadow, Sliding through long grass Near the water hole Where plump dear pass.” The poet is moved to pity for the tiger. He says that zoo is not the place where he should be. Rather he should have been in the jungle moving quietly in the shadows near some water source, and waiting for a healthy deer to pass that way.
