Read the poem "seacoast silhouette" how does personification affect the tone of the first stanza
34kurt

All up and down the dunes,

the tall green grasses dance,

as the wind plays lively tunes

across the sandy expanse.

silent and somber and still,

its reflection on the sea is a tattoo,

that we watch from upon the hill.

It gives the stanza a positive,playful tone.

The sentence itself should be considered a well-fit conclusion, as to not cut off your thoughts. These are every teacher's guidelines for concluding sentences of every writing type, excluding narratives.
