Question

Which figurative line is the most appropriate to complete this poem?

Answer 1

Willows bent to greet each other,
Squirrels traded their gossip in the foliage,
The brook laughed as it ran over the shingles below,

Answer 2

While a cold, dead silence reigned.
Like a tattered ribbon caught between the rocks
And the willful wind whispered what it wished.
Like a wounded wayfarer, weary and wanting rest.
