While the grandmother tidies up—hanging the almanac back on its string, putting more wood on the stove—the child draws a picture of a house and a man “with buttons like tears” to show to her grandma

Elizabeth Bishop’s poem The Fish displays her ecological awareness that leads her to accept a relationship of coexistence between human beings and nonhuman beings This ecological awareness in the poem is reflected when she leaves the fish free It is one of her typical and representative poems

The fish had fought back for his life and escaped from sure death The narrator believes this fish’s wisdom and enduring effort to survive symbolizes victory: “Victory filled up / the little rented boat” (66-67) The fish had fought on the front lines between nature and humanity and outlasted all of its opponents

One interpretation of “The Fish” by Elizabeth Bishop allows that the imagery of a rainbow of colors on the fish symbolizes the victory of the fish, which affects the epiphany of the speaker

‘ In line 75, the word ‘rainbow’ is repeated three times just before the narrator let’s the fish go This symbol could be one of religious definition when God gave Noah a sign of peace, the rainbow Possibly, the poet and the fish are now at peace with each other as they go their separate ways

A symbol of faith and hope In more recent history, the 20th century saw the rainbow used to symbolise moments and movements of social change In the 1960s a rainbow flag was used at peace marches, in Italy and beyond, as it was in demonstrations against nuclear weapons A symbol of an ongoing desire for peace

The speaker is referring fish hooks to medals because well it’s hard to explain things but if you think about it fish are like people and hooks are the medals you get hooked on trying to get the medal

The speaker of this poem is a fisherperson Man or woman, we can’t really tell, though we keep calling the speaker “her,” since the poet is a woman But the fisher is very attentive (we know this because of the amount of detail we get throughout the poem)

At the culmination of Elizabeth Bishop’s poem “The Fish”, the speaker makes an inscrutable decision to release just such a catch
