Explain how the speaker uses both connotative and figurative language to express her feelings about how people and nature work together. Include at least two examples from the poem to support your response. (P. S don't forget to support your response with AT LEAST TWO examples from the poem)

hello,

your answer is a) the metaphor suggests that the poetic themes are serious and dark.

collins is comparing the poem to a dark room. he is suggesting that the poems theme is serious and wants you to understand it. you don't need to understand the poet in order to understand the poem. you also don't need to move around while reading it. he is simply saying the poem has a dark and serious theme.

- i.a -

the pronoun reference replaces a noun, but you have to make sure there's no room for confusion.

in the first sentence "her" could be referring to shely or to the sister. the answer there is "shelly called her sister and told her about the new baby."

in the second sentence "it" could be referring to the roof or the floor. the answer there is "since the roof leaks on the family room floor, we need to repair the roof."

it could change in many ways and by that i mean income can go lower or higher depending on how hard you work. i hope this .
