Hi, Claire!
How are you? Today when I was coming back from school I saw an older lady who was struggling with her grocery bags as they were heavy and she was walking back to her house, since it seemed like she needed some help I approached her and asked if she would want me to help her carrying the bags. She said it was very nice of me to ask and that her house was a couple of blocks away, so I carried her bags and walked with her until we got to her house. She was really nice and she told me she usually struggles with this since she lives by herself. She thanked me and said it was nice to see young people willing to lend a hand to the elderly. She gave me a hug to thank me and we said goodbye. It was good to help her!

This excerpt was taken from part XXIII of Derek Walcott's "Midsummer". Born in 1930 in Saint Lucia, Walcott received several awards for his works, including the Nobel Prize. He passed away in 2017.
The simile we are analyzing here compares the summer leaves to the Brixton riot. This may seem to be quite an unlikely comparison, which is probably what the author was aiming for. It is quite powerful to compare a season to a riot and its violence. As a matter of fact, as the poem goes on, the author continues to do so. He compares, for instance, leaves and branches to cattle being whipped. All of that unusual comparison aims to illustrate the author's feelings toward his subject matter, which is clearly quite strong.
