Within My Reach 5
I sit in class, hunched over my desk,
Searching for a solution to my math problem.
I am a heron, motionless in the river.
Waiting to snatch a fish out of the muddy water.
But no fish appears.
I sigh and close my eyes, but when I open them-
Magic!
My thoughts have become like a crystal stream
And the answer is a fish swimming close.
Just within my reach.
What does the metaphor in lines 3-4 help the reader understand?
01. The speaker wishes she were fishing instead of doing math.
2. The speaker is intently awaiting the answer to a math problem.
lor is daydreaming about what it would be like to be a heron.
