The old man
must have stopped our car
two dozen times to climb out
and gather into his hands
the small toads blinded
by our lights and leaping,
live drops of rain.
What are readers most likely to infer from the phrase "blinded by our lights”?
The action in the poem takes place at night.
The weather makes the toads difficult to see.
Another car is coming around the bend.
Grampa is shining a lantern to see the toads.
