It's a haiku poem, but your second answer is wrong.
Thanks, and is the second one A
Your answer for the first question, identifying the form of the poem as a Haiku (B), is correct.
For the second question, the correct answer is A. It is about nature, and it has a set syllable count. This supports the answer to the first question because a Haiku is a form of Japanese poetry that traditionally consists of three lines with a syllable pattern of 5-7-5. In this case, the poem has three lines, and the syllable counts are as follows: "In the dusty lane" (5 syllables), "A frog waits for a puddle" (7 syllables), and "To fall from the sky" (5 syllables). Additionally, the subject matter of the poem is related to nature, which is a common theme in Haiku poetry.
Nope. I've checked two of your answers. You're on your own now.
I suggest you look up the meaning of haiku.
