Answer:

A.)The speaker is the grass that is determined to grow over the earth.

Explanation:

In this poem, the speaker is the grass which is determined to grow all over the earth. We learn this due to the repetition of the phrase "I am the grass; I cover all." The grass tells us that it is present everywhere, that it covers everywhere, and that it is unconcerned about the events that happened on the land it is covering.
