Would someone help me with Paraphrasing this Please?

This is how I interpreted the poem, which I'm pretty sure is a somewhat standard way of reading it. As with any piece of art, everyone will get something different from it... Hope this helps though

Tiger that is a bold color,

in the woods in the middle of the night;

what god or maker

could have painted your stripes?

In what far away place

did the beauty of your eyes form?

What divine being

put your soul inside of you?

Did your creator have a physical form

to mold your personality?

When you came alive,

were there hands and feet?

With what tools

was your brain created?

What is the process

to make a beautiful tiger?

When Satan rebelled against God,

the other angels cried.

Did you see a smile?

Were you made by the same entity as Jesus?

Tiger that is a bold color,

in the woods in the middle of the night;

what god or maker

could have painted your stripes?

- "there are several movements that doris lessing was associated with. first of all, communism. she pursued her communist beliefs and included them in her writing, and was also a member of several communist book clubs. she is also strongly associated with feminism, her fight for equality and women's rights.

doris lessing is the kind of writer who has followers, not just readers. they have been engaged to her chiefly because of her involvement in major problems, such as politics and woman-ism."
