Question

choose the poem that uses anaphora.
a granite cliff on either shore,
a highway poised in air;
above, the wheels of traffic roar,
below, the fleets sail fair.—
and in and out forevermore
the surging tides of ocean pour.

as i lie roofed in, screened in,
from the pattering rain;
the summer rain—
as i lie
snug and dry,
and hear the birds complain.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Anaphora is the repetition of a word or phrase at the start of successive clauses/sentences. The second poem repeats "As I lie" (first line: "As I lie roofed in...", fourth line: "As I lie") at the beginning of lines, showing anaphora. The first poem has no such repeated opening phrases.

Answer:

The second poem (starting with "As I lie roofed in, screened in, From the pattering rain; The summer rain— As I lie Snug and dry, And hear the birds complain.")
