1. Which is your favorite Poet/Lyricist? Why?
Ans-> My favourite Poet/Lyricist is Gulzar. His words have a way of resonating with people and touching their hearts. Gulzar's poetry is filled with deep emotions, beautiful imagery, and thought-provoking themes. His ability to convey complex feelings and experiences in a simple yet profound manner is truly admirable. 

2. Share some lines from the Bob Dylan songs that you feel are relatable to you. Also, write the themes visible in those lines.
Ans-> Bob Dylan's songs are so relatable and filled with meaningful lyrics. Let me share a couple of lines that I find particularly relatable:
1. "How many roads must a man walk down before you call him a man?" - From the song "Blowin' in the Wind"
   Theme: The journey of self-discovery and the quest for personal growth.

2. "Don't think twice, it's all right." - From the song "Don't Think Twice, It's All Right"
   Theme: Acceptance of the end of a relationship and moving forward.

3. Share some lines from the Robert Frost poems that you feel are relatable to you. Also, write the themes visible in those lines.
Ans-> Robert Frost's poems are so relatable and filled with vivid imagery. Let me share a couple of lines that I find particularly meaningful:

1. "Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
   I took the one less traveled by." - From the poem "The Road Not Taken"
   Theme: The choices we make in life and the paths we choose to follow.

2. "Whose woods these are I think I know.
   His house is in the village though." - From the poem "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening"
   Theme: The contemplation of nature and the fleeting moments of tranquility.

3. "But I have promises to keep,
   And miles to go before I sleep." - From the poem "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening"
   Theme: The responsibilities and obligations we have in life.

Thank you!!
