The Song My Paddle Sings by Emily Pauline Johnson What does line 1 of the poem reveal about the speaker’s voice? A. The speaker has a desire to control natural forces. B. The speaker has a careless attitude toward nature. C. The speaker is angry about nature's seeming indifference. D. The speaker is insecure about his or her place in nature.

A. The speaker has a desire to control natural forces

Explanation:

Line 1 says: "West Wind, blow from your prairie nest,"

This reveals that the speaker is desiring to have control over the wind (nature) by commanding it to blow from its prairie nest. When we command something, we tend to show our control or our desire to control that thing.
