Question

The Power of Music' is a light-hearted, amusing poem. Discuss.

Answer 1

The Power of Music is a light-hearted and humorous poem that describes the comic effects of Bhisma Lochan Sharma’s loud and unpleasant singing. The poet uses exaggerated incidents, such as birds turning upside down, fishes diving deep into the lake, trees collapsing, and buildings tumbling, to make readers laugh. Even though Bhisma sings with good intentions, his voice creates chaos everywhere. The poem entertains the reader through humour, hyperbole, and satire while showing the effects of bad singing.
