Answer:
The poem is about how nature adapts easily to adverse weather, and about how man suffers in it. Presumably the farmer is on a 'spit' because he is worrying about his cattle or crops, and is powerless to help them.
Attitude
The tone of the poem seems to be one of gentle wonder. The images of the animals are all of comfort and warmth. And even the potentially grotesque image of the tortured farmers seems rather comic.
Style
Hughes mainly shows us his talent for thinking of fresh and arresting similes in this poem.
But as in all the poems he also employs metaphor and personification.
Once again, he cleverly adapts his form to underscore the ideas in the poem.
