Answer:
Deer is the symbol of 'gentleness' and 'innocence.'
Step-by-step explanation:
"Deer" is a poem written by Rosario Castellanos. The poem speaks about the destiny of the things that we love and don't love. Castellanos speaks that the things that we love dies and the things that we don't love lives with us.
The deer in the poem symbolizes 'gentleness' and 'innocence.' The deer, in the poem, is over powered by the lion, which symbolizes violence and strength. It is assumed that the poem was written in remembrance of the two miscarriages that Rosario faced in her life.
The deer is being shot with an arrow in the poem, which refers to the 'gentleness' and 'innocence' being shot and over powered by the lion (the things that we don't love).
So, the correct answer is 'gentleness' and 'innocence.'
