The correct answer is D. relies on the reader to figure it out.
- Poets use figurative language to appeal to the senses of the readers. Figurative language helps poets with two much important aspects; in conveying ideas beyond the literal meaning, and in creating a bridge between them and the readers based on a familiar context. Figurative language gives the readers a clever insight into the ideas of the writer. Another way of putting these same ideas is that figurative language helps readers to feel the experiences of the poem, as the writes wants them to be felt.
