In the poem morning in the burned house What effect does the figurative language in lines 17-18 have on the poem's mood?
a.

b. These lines emphasize the stillness of the house in contrast to the growth and movement
of nature.
The speaker describes the cloud as dark rising bread, suggesting an unfortunate omen on
the horizon.
d. The speaker describes the cloud as bread rising silently, implying a tragedy is about to
happen in the present.

The correct answer is option b. These lines emphasize the stillness of the house in contrast to the growth and movement  of nature.

Explanation:

In this poem we can see a person who goes to what was once her home but now only ashes remain. The speaker can still see what it was like before it was burned, she sees herself eating breakfast and can hear the loved ones she has lost.

There is a lot of pain in her words and by how she describes the house we can see that there is only silence and ruins. As everything continues to move around it, in the house she can only see the destroyed or melted objects and memories that are no longer there.

For this reason, we can say that the correct answer is option B.
