Answer 1

The line "you were caught in a drift" in the poem "Sea Rose" by H.D. suggests that the rose mentioned earlier in the poem has been carried or swept away by the currents or forces of the sea. It is caught in a drift, meaning it is trapped or stranded in the movement of the water. This could symbolize the fragility and transience of beauty or the vulnerability of delicate things in the face of powerful natural forces.
