Nature is very helpful in taking away our pall of despondence. Explain this in the
context of the poem.

Dear student,

Assuming that your question is based on the poem 'Dust of Snow', here is an answer:

The given statement is absolutely true. In the poem, we read that dust of snow (perhaps a freckle of snow or it could also refer to the little white flowers that can be found on a hemlock tree) fell on the poet's shoulder who was experiencing a bad day. However, as soon as a crow came and sat on the hemlock tree, dust of snow was shaken off and it fell on the poet. This “dust of snow” changed the poet’s mood. The poet’s mood changed from that of dismay to joy. He was holding the day in regret when this dust of snow fell on him and this simple little thing brought him some joy.

Regards

The above lines convey that life is full of hopelessness and sadness. There is lack of noble feelings amongst men. In spite of all this, some beautiful things help us to shed our sad and grim thoughts.

Human life is full of trials and tribulations. We add to our troubles and make our lives more difficult by following evil ways. We hurt others as well as ourselves. This makes us despondent.
