When the scarlet cardinal tells
her dream to the dragonfly,
and the lazy breeze makes a nest in the trees,
and murmurs a lullaby,
it is july.
when the tangled cobweb pulls
the cornflower’s cap awry,
and the lilies tall lean over the wall
to bow to the butterfly,
it is july.
when the heat like a mist veil floats,
and poppies flame in the rye,
and the silver note in the streamlet's throat
has softened almost to a sigh,
it is july.
when the hours are so still that time
forgets them, and lets them lie
‘neath petals pink till the night stars wink
at sunset in the sky,
it is july.

what effect do words like dream, lazy, and lullaby have in the first stanza of "july"?

they add light humor.

they create a relaxed mood.

they add energetic imagery.

they create dramatic tension.
