Dear Student,
Given below are a few points that will help you frame a complete answer.
  • In the present world, happiness is synonymous to wealth and material possessions.
  • There existed a world in the past, where our forefathers believed that the greatest treasure is the values and virtues passed down the generations. 
  • As the competitive spirit sparked within the individuals, man let go of these values and strived to achieve his selfish goals, even if it demanded unhealthy means. 
  • Family and relationships no longer played an important role and man focussed on gaining wealth from his own family.
  • In the poem, the poet teaches us about animals who are not concerned about material things, but find happiness in small joys.
  • Therefore, one ought to understand that material things will never satisfy us or give us lasting joys.
I hope you find this answer helpful. Please post more questions on the forum to be assisted by our team.
