Answer:
C
Explanation:
An oxymoron is a figure of speech that relates two contradictory ideas together, like <em>falsely true</em> or <em>deafening silence</em>

Answer:
The rhyming scheme of the poem is:
ABAB CDCD EFEF
Explanation:
To find the rhyme scheme of a poem, we must pay attention to the final sound of the last word in each line. The very first final sound is always given the letter A as an identifier. Every time that sound is repeated in the last word of a line, it will be identified as A. The second final sound will be B, the third, C, the fourth D, and so on. Let's do that for the poem we are analyzing here. Since our focus is the last word of each line, let's omit the rest:
soaring A
breeze B
roaring A
seas B
glancing C
high D
dancing C
sky D
lashing E
spray F
dashing E
to-day F
