The sky is low, the clouds are mean,
A travelling flake of snow
Across a barn or through a rut
Debates if it will go.

A narrow wind complains all day
How some one treated him;
Nature, like us, is sometimes caught
Without her diadem.

Pls answer this 35 points to answer,pls don't put idk or anything like that.this test is worth 40 percent of my grade.pls and thank you.

Answer:

uhhh yeah

Explanation:

The effect of the pauses creates a an imagery of winter day movement, like in the first stanza, it kinds of intimidating a snowflake in the air movement. The snowflake itself is debating if it goes through a barn or rut. I'm not sure where to go. Moreover, snowflakes do not travel straight down; instead, the wind pushes and pulls them. The stanza's first line is long, while others are shorter. This mimics the snowflake's back-and-forth motion. Similarly, the second stanza mimics the "narrow wind." The length and sound of the lines mimic the wind's hurling nature, which "complains all day."
