Wow, there are so many things I could think of. I would tell them that I am so proud of them for still working through it. You have to understand that people are always going to judge, that doesn’t mean it’s the right thing to do, but it will happen. Bullies are usually very insecure about themselves and like to bring other people down in the sense that it ‘brings them up’. Ignore it, let it roll off your shoulders because their comments? They mean nothing. Don’t give them the satisfaction of being hurt by it. If you don’t let it bother you they will eventually get bored because it doesn’t give them anything back. Be the bigger person. You got this!!
The literary device used in the poem is Personification. The effect of personification is that it gives trees and palms human-like character and bring human life to them.
<u>Explanation</u>
- Personification is that figure of speech that renders non-human character human form by way of comparison. Therefore, non-human characters are given a humanistic form which helps the readers understand the character better and even sometimes empathize with them.
- In Personification human qualities and features are given to non-human entities which eventually allow them to compare their different feature and character. This subsequently allows them to be understood better by the readers and the audience at large.
- Personification is the most common literary device which is used by writers and poets, in particular, to express their ideas and visions better and more specifically.
All together there are about ten literary devices which are also called figures of speech of which personification stands out to be the most important one. In the given lines "...watching the trees at the edge of town that reluctantly moved to the slow wind. The palms beyond them were still as if awaiting something", the poet had tried to personify trees with the human that moved very hesitantly while the palms were unmoved.

I am pretty sure the answer is either A or B. (Melancholic means sadness) so I believe it is hopeful (B) because it says that the Sun falls in a pool of 'golden light'. I am not completely sure about this though.
