Read the poem.
there will come soft rains
by sara teasdale
there will come soft rains and the smell of the ground,
and swallows circling with their shimmering sound;
and frogs in the pools singing at night,
and wild-plum trees in tremulous white;
robins will wear their feathery fire
whistling their whims on a low fence-wire;
and not one will know of the war, not one
will care at last when it is done.
not one would mind, neither bird nor tree,
if mankind perished utterly;
and spring herself, when she woke at dawn,
would scarcely know that we were gone.
reread these lines from the poem:
there will come soft rains and the smell of the ground,
and swallows circling with their shimmering sound;
what is the effect of the figurative language on the tone of the poem?
it creates a reflective tone, as the imagery causes the reader to pause.
it causes an indifferent tone, as the birds are not flying with a purpose.
it develops a soothing tone, as the alliteration provides a soft rhythm.
it presents a disdainful tone, as the description of the ground is unpleasant.
