In the poem when great trees fall how does the poet strike a comparrison between nature and humans

Answer»

They hide, hunker down, and “lumber after safety”. The metaphor compares the death of loved ones to the monumental shifts that OCCUR when LARGE and powerful trees fall in the forest. As the poem progresses she moves on to directly SPEAK about “great souls” and how human BEINGS react to loss.
