Question

What punctuation breaks up the sections of the poem "Drink your Tea"?

Answer 1

Answer:

The punctuation that breaks up the sections of the poem is 'semi-colon', at the end of the fifth line, in the poem "Drink your tea."

Explanation:

"Drink Your Tea" is a short poem written by Thich Nhat Hanh. The poem is philosophical in nature. Thich Nhat Hanh is a Vietnamese Buddhist Monk, who is known globally for his peace-making teachings, a poet, and spiritual leader.

In his poem "Drink Your Tea", Hanh is talking about living in the present moment. The poem extends up to 7 lines, and divided in two sections. The first section is from line 1-5, and second in line 6-7.

The punctuation mark that divides the poem is 'semi-colon', at the end of the fifth line. The first section of the poem, Hanh dictates to his readers that one should take every steps peaceably in life, without rushing. And, the second section summarizes his thought and gives the central idea of the poem which is to 'live the actual moment.'
