1800-102-2727The poet took an essential part of our daily life to talk about- fan an appliance. According to the poet, the fan is trying to say something with its noise, but it is not being understood. The poet could not comprehend what the fan was telling her. However, an electrician came and put oil in the motors of the fan. The noise then stopped. It became smooth with silence all over—the mystery of what the fan was trying to say this gets solved. The mystery of the fan was that it was trying to tell the poet about its problem. It was trying to tell that it needs servicing to run smoothly and silently as before. However, when the electrician did the work, the problems got solved.
The poem is as simple as it looks, but its meaning is what can be understood differently. The poet took fan as a metaphor to explain real-life situations where our loved ones are trying to tell us their problems in their daily lives, but we cannot understand. We sometimes don't put the effort that is required to understand people. It sometimes happens due to the generation gap or fear, or it can be anything else. Like the fan got smooth and silent after oiling, our loved ones also need our care and affection to get through their lives. A small step taken can make a big difference in our loved one's life. When we take care of the smallest things in our lives by knowing their noise, it can help us understand our loved ones' problems.
