Solution and Explanation
The poet uses the ‘Hindered Flags’ image to portray the beauty of flowers that stand on their stems with petals full of aroma having not bloomed fully. But, to dance like a tree, they have to bloom fully. So, before they could bloom, they have to slit open the tough green calyx. Hence, the ‘Hindered Flags’ represents flowers that have not bloomed fully.
