The answer is: To emphasize the horror of what has happened.


Silent Spring is an environmental book written by Rachel Carson in 1962. She focused her attention on environmental problems specially the ones caused by synthetic pesticides.

What does the simile in lines 31-34 mean and how does it contribute to the poem?
defon

Answer:

The simile establishes a comparison relationship between two images, the use of "what" allows connecting different elements to offer a new way of understanding the poem.

The meaning is that the passage of time is inevitable, and with it, the feeling of forgetting will happen. The presence of oblivion is present in us like heaven every day, and it occurs in all spaces.
