Answer:

D. That he wants to give her comfort and warmth is the correct answer.

Explanation:

I Am Offering This Poem is a poem written by Chicano poet Jimmy Santiago Baca. This is a poem that shows love from the speaker to his beloved one by offering everything he has -the poem.

A metaphor is rhetorical device that compares two things (in an implicit way); in this case, the speaker mentions that he wants his beloved one to be comfortable and give her warmth, the speaker literally mentions that he wants to <em>warm</em> her belly, so D is the correct answer.
