Answer 1

Answer:

Underground by James Reeves is a poem on Nature but different in the sense that it describes the activities of life below the soil.

While the surface is all green with ample light, the underground is dark and devoid of it. But that doesn't mean it is any less lively than the life on the surface. It is in fact teeming with life with rabbits and moles turning explorers and burying deep underground. Like the animals that of the surface hunt and forage for food, so do the ants and other lifeforms toil for food. Some animals choose to rest safe and snug in the womb of the earth and are disturbed at times by a shovel or spade finding itself intruding upon their space. The trees that so lush and green above the surface are so because of their strong roots deeply furrowed and rooted in the underground. Last but not the least, the underground serves not only as the land of the living and land of birth for a number of lifeforms above the surface, but it also serves as the land of the dead!
