Note This section contains five questions of five marks each based on the following poem. Each question should be answered in about thirty words. ×
5 25 Marks)
If you see an old man sitting alone
at the bus stand and wonder who he is
I can tell you.
He is my father.
He is not waiting for a bus or a friend,
nor is he taking a brief rest before
resuming his walk.
He doesn't intend to shop in the
nearby stores either.
He is just sitting there on the bench.

Occasionally he smiles and talks.
No one listens.
Nobody is interested
And he doesn't seem to care
if someone listens or not.

A stream of cars, buses, and people
flows by on the road.
A river of images, metaphors and
smiles flows through his head.
When everything stops
at the traffic lights it is midnight
back in his village. Morning starts
when lights turn green.
When someone honks his neighbour's
dog barks.

When a yellow car passes by
a thousand mustard flowers
bloom in his head.

A tall man passes with his shadow
vanishing behind him. My father
thinks of Pauli who left his village
for Malaya and
never came back. A smile appears
on his lips and disappears.

When nothing interesting seems to
happen he talks to
his other self:
Where were you born and where
have you come
Who brought you here
Shall you ever go back
It is all destiny, yes a play of
destiny, you see.

He muses
and nods his head:
And where will you die my dear

The thought of death is most
interesting and lingers on.
He stops talking, and thinks of the
Fraser Street chapel where he
attends funerals sometimes.
He thinks about the black
and red decorations and
imagines himself resting peacefully,
a line of people
passing by looking at him
for the last time.
His eyes are lit. Perhaps
this is the image he

enjoys most
before it is demolished
with the rude arrival of a bus.

A pain spreads over
his forehead,
passengers get down and
walk away briskly like ants.
the bus leaves.
He looks
at the traffic again to see
if a yellow car is passing by.

15.
Who is the speaker in the poem and what is his relationship with the character described

16.
How would you describe the condition of the old man


17. What is the old man reminded of in his present situation
18.
Comment on the old man's musings on death.

19.
Why is the yellow car significant for the old man
