I will be the gladdest thing
Under the sun!
I will touch a hundred flowers
And not pick one.
I will look at cliffs and clouds
With quiet eyes,
Watch the wind bow down the grass,
And the grass rise.
And when lights begin to show
Up from the town,
I will mark which must be mine,
And then start down!
A We must always remember our duty.
B Things are more beautiful outside.
C Nature can calm you down.
D It is okay to sometimes escape life.
I think it is a mix between C and D, but if you can only choose one, I would say choose D, because while C would make sense, it would not be entirely correct, because the speaker in the poem does not state anything about him not being calm. He mostly states how he pays close attention to certain details of the landscape around him.
Watch the wind bow down the grass,
And the grass rise.
The above example states how the speaker is watching the "battle" between the grass and the wind.
The purpose of this poem, I think, is to show that you can escape life for a little while, and enjoy the beauty of nature, which is what the speaker is doing.
When the town begins to wake up, however, he must go back and do what he needs to do.
Hope this helps! Please let me know if you need more help, or if you think my answer is incorrect. Brainliest would be MUCH appreciated. Have a great day!
Stay Brainy!
