hey ! here's your answer...


ndhopstand by a pond on a winter day, a pond "edged with grayish leaves," that reflects the tone of this poem.  This dismal tone underscores the remembrances of the speaker about his former love as their relationship ended:  "The smile on your mouth was the deadest thing."  With the sun described as "as thou chidden of God" and the "starving sod," nature conveys the dismal mood of the speaker.

In his poem "The Darkling Thrush," Hardy writes that

The land's sharp features seemed to be

The Century's corpse outleant,

His crypt the coudy canopy,

The wind his death-lament.

But, just when the speaker believes that nature shares his mood, a darkling thrush appears and sings

His happy good-night air

Some blessed Hope, whereof he knew

And I was unaware.

So, it really is an indifferent universe that, in its caprice that the speaker does not understand, has a cheerful song.


hope it helps you... plz mark as brainliest...
