"tell me, o swan, your ancient tale"

which of the following best describes the poem's extended metaphor?

a the poem’s extended metaphor is implicit, rather than explicit.

b the poem’s extended metaphor is neither implicit, nor explicit.

c the poem’s extended metaphor is explicit rather than implicit.

d the poem’s extended metaphor both implicit and explicit.

The correct answer is A.

In Kabir's poem "Tell Me, O Swan, Your Ancient Tale," the metaphor is implicit because, very clearly, the poet is using the swan to represent something else.

However, the comparison is never expressly stated in the poem, making the metaphor implicit.

each poet admires poetry

they each admire poetry because they could just use an expression or verbally just say you but they both write in in poetry which shows they know how to write in poetry.

i believe the answer is thesis, reasons, evidence, counterclaim, conclusion
