Read the poem then explain how the underlined figurative language helps develop either the theme or the imagery in the poem. Remember to establish what the figurative language is.

“There Will Come Soft Rain” by Sara Teasdale
There will come soft rain and the smell of the ground,

And swallows circling with their shimmering sound;

And frogs in the pools singing at night,

And wild plum trees in tremulous white;

Robins will wear their feathery fire,

Whistling their whims on a low fence-wire;

And not one will know of the war, not one

Will care at last when it is done.

Not one would mind, neither bird nor tree,

If mankind perished utterly;

And Spring herself, when she woke at dawn

Would scarcely know that we were gone.

And frogs in the pools singing at night,

And wild plum trees in tremulous white;

If mankind perished utterly;

And Spring herself, when she woke at dawn

Would scarcely know that we were gone.
