"My Old Home," shows the moment when the narrator returns to his hometown, after 20 years, to help his family move to another home.

The narrator feels strange when reviewing the house, because he no longer has the emotional attachment to this place and does not feel that this is his house. He realizes that his mother is also a little sad, probably because she lived in this house for many years and leaving for another house, causes her to leave many precious memories behind.

This question requires a personal answer. I will give you an answer that you can use as an example to modify it and make your own.
Explanation:
This question corresponds to the poem "My mother saw a dancing bear" by <em>Charles Causley.</em>
We must begin by clarifying that the word bruin is used to name bears, especially in texts addressed to children.
That could be the first reason. The author may have wanted his poem to be addressed to an audience of children. If we read the poem with attention we can see that the poem has a happy tone and that there are even children in it.

Personification is when an inanimate object is given the characteristics of a living thing. This means that when something that is not alive like stones or wood are given living attributes, making them look like they are alive, is known as personification.
Among the given examples, personification is seen in the sentence about the tables. Here, the tables are personified as <em>"butterflies</em>", capable of folding themselves like butterflies. The speaker states that <em>"the tables folded like great butterflies"</em>, which is realistically impossible for a table to fold by itself.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
