Extra Credit -- Poem

Who has seen the wind?
Neither I nor you;
But when the leaves hang trembling
The wind is passing through.

Who has seen the wind?
Neither you nor I;
But when the trees bow down their heads
The wind is passing by.

Christina Rossetti

Weather is used throughout this poem by talking all about wind. To enhance this poem the poet uses words like "leaves, trembling, wind etc. etc." and this tells us that this also has to do with weather. With using knowledge about weather for this poem it helps you understand better about what she's talking about by creating a picture in the reader's mind. The type of weather discussed is the wind.

The poem would not be the same without the mention of weather because then this poem would not exist without the element of wind. Figurative language is used in this poem when she says "the trees bow down their heads" because trees cannot literally bow down their heads. This specific poem does not further my knowledge about weather because it only talks about the wind passing by.
