Comprehension Passage
Read the following poem and answer the questions-
I do not understand this child
Though we have lived together now
In the same house for years. I know
Nothing of him, so try to build
Up a relationship from how
He was when small. Yet have I killed
The seed I spent or sown it where
The land is his and none of mine?

Of understanding in the air.

Yet what he loves I cannot share
