Some day, when trees have shed their leaves

Question

And against the morning’s white
The shivering birds beneath the eaves
Have sheltered for the night,
We’ll turn our faces southward, love,
Toward the summer isle
Where bamboos spire the shafted grove
And wide-mouthed orchids smile.

Which words does the poet include to help the reader visualize the scene?

“Some day”
“against the morning’s white”
“We’ll turn our faces”
“Toward the summer isle”

Answer 1

The words that help the reader visualize the scene are "against the morning’s white" and "Toward the summer isle."

"Against the morning’s white" evokes a clear image of a bright, crisp morning, and "Toward the summer isle" suggests a vivid, tropical location, enhancing the visual imagery of an idyllic, warm place.

While "Some day" and "We’ll turn our faces" contribute to the sense of time and action, they are less focused on creating a visual image than the other two phrases.
