The animals and birds use the tree freely, climbing it, jumping or flying from its branches. This is the tree in summer, according to the poem.

b) Name the poem and the poet.

The poem is called "The tree in Season", and it was written by Robert Fisher.

c) What is the poetic device used in this stanza? Pick the line and write.

The most evident poetic device used in this stanza is personification. Through personification, an author attributes human-like qualities to non-human beings or living qualities to non-living objects. The tree is just a tree. It has no mind, no knowledge. Yet, the speaker says it "knows the birds". The tree does not have a moving body, like animals and humans do. It cannot move on its own. Yet, the speaker says it "stretches" and "yawns".
