Answer:

The idea that the sea has "clashing teeth and shaggy jaws, that it "gnaws and "roars" like an angry, hungry animal, is a strikingly original comparison: a metaphor , to be exact, as other commenters have pointed out.  Therefore, the mood is not peaceful, and it is not friendly; instead, it is off-putting, concerning, even frightening.

thats what i think is the answer
