"Kangaroo" Nikolay Gumilyov
Girl's morning
Sleep did not soften me today,
I woke up early in the morning
And she went, breathing fresh air,
View a tame kangaroo.He plucked bunches of resinous needles
Silly, chewed them for some reason,
And funny, funny jumped up to me,
And screamed even funnier.He has such clumsy caresses
But I also love to caress him,
So that his brown eyes
Instantly lit up the celebration.And then, covered with languor,
I sat on the bench to dream;
What does he not find, distant, unfamiliar,
The one I love!Thoughts fall so clearly
Like the shadows of leaves in the morning.
I want to caress someone
How the kangaroo caressed me.
Analysis of Gumilyov's poem "Kangaroo"
Unspent love and tenderness became for Nikolai Gumilyov something like a symbol of family life. From the very beginning, his relationship with Anna Akhmatova was very difficult, and the poetess herself admitted that she married a compulsive young man only out of fears that he would still commit suicide. Gumilyov guessed about this, but at first he reveled in his feelings and believed that this was quite enough for a happy family life. Meanwhile, this life took shape as in the old fairy tale about the fox and the crane. Tired of seeking reciprocity on the part of Akhmatova and suffering from the fact that her husband is making serious progress in the literary field, Gumilev found a new hobby for himself - traveling to exotic countries. It was then that Anna Akhmatova realized that she was very fond of her unlucky, somewhat naive and romantic spouse, but pride did not allow her to admit it. As a result, the marriage broke up, and very soon each of the former spouses was involved in a new romance. But that all-consuming tenderness that Gumilyov once felt for Akhmatova, he now sorely lacked.
Perhaps it was this feeling that made him write the poem "Kangaroo" in 1918, in which the story is told from the perspective of a young girl. Gumilyov was greatly shocked that his family had broken up, but he did not dare even to admit to himself the feelings he felt. Nevertheless, it is from this work that it becomes obvious that Gumilyov is still in love with his ex-wife, although he understands that there is no return to the past. He tries to find a replacement for her, but does not feel anything like the way he felt for Akhmatova. Therefore, the phrase “I want to caress someone like a kangaroo caressed me” sounds like a call for help from a person who is broken by everyday hardships.
An attempt to veil your true feelings from others in this work is obvious. The double allegory to which Gumilyov resorts is expressed in the fact that he portrays himself in the form of a young and romantic person, and assigns his beloved the role of a tame kangaroo - a peaceful, gentle and devoted animal. But the relationship between the main characters of the poem is very far from reality, since Akhmatova has a sharp and rebellious character, and Gumilyov himself does not want to realize that one needs to fight for love, and not wait until someone almighty arranges his personal life.

And screamed even funnier.

But I also love to caress him,

What does he not find, distant, unfamiliar,
The one I love!
Thoughts fall so clearly
Like the shadows of leaves in the morning.
I want to caress someone
How the kangaroo caressed me.
