Answer 2

Option C) dreamy, content

• As the speaker reminisce fondly on his past as "a swinger of birches" and declares that "one could do worse than be a swinger of birches," the tone of "Birches" is ultimately optimistic. The poem's birches appear to be metaphors for people who, like the birches, may be "bowed so low for so long.
• The poem touches on a number of issues, including nature, youth and adulthood, and death and elopement. The youngster himself and the boy swinging from the birch trees are two symbols used by the poem to make its argument.
• He is aware that ice storms have really bent them. However, he favours his own interpretation of a boy carefully ascending a tree before dangling from the tree's crown to the earth. He used to perform this task personally and longs to return to those times. Birch swinging is compared to "being away from the earth for a bit" before returning.
• The snow is nearly knee-high and it's a chilly New England morning. We could be in Amherst, Massachusetts, the home of Robert Frost, or we may be somewhere else cold and snowy. The forest is covered in ice from a recent ice storm, and the weight of the ice is bending the tree branches.
