Read "A Narrow Fellow in the Grass" by Emily Dickinson. From whose point of view is the poem most likely written?

A narrow fellow in the grass
Occasionally rides;
You may have met him, — did you not,
His notice sudden is.

The grass divides as with a comb,
A spotted shaft is seen;
And then it closes at your feet
And opens further on.

He likes a boggy acre,
A floor too cool for corn.
Yet when a child, and barefoot,
I more than once, at morn,

Have passed, I thought, a whip-lash
Unbraiding in the sun, —
When, stooping to secure it,
It wrinkled, and was gone.

Several of nature's people
I know, and they know me;
I feel for them a transport
Of cordiality;

But never met this fellow,
Attended or alone, Without a tighter breathing,
And zero at the bone.

A) her personal point of view

B) a famous person's point of view

C) a child's point of view

D) a teenager's point of view
