natta225 [31]

Answer and explanation

In "The Pasture," you can perceive the tone of tranquility, since the speaker of the poem is constantly inviting us to participate in the simple and peaceful life of the farm, which despite being a busy environment, is an invigorating and pleasant place, with a rush different from the city, because unlike the city, the rush of the countryside brings good results.

In A Patch of Old Snow ", on the other hand, we are introduced to the tone of regret, as the speaker shows how he regrets not having enjoyed the snow, while it was beautiful and represented a beautiful symbol of winter. Unfortunately, the speaker left a good time to pass and he only noticed the snow when it became ugly and uncomfortable, that is, the speaker did not take advantage of a good opportunity in his own life.
