I don’t have the haiku — please paste it.

Meanwhile, here’s a quick way to pick the two correct answers once you provide it:

Look for diction and imagery (words about clouds, wind, thunder vs. bright sun, light) and tone (words that show worry, fear, enjoyment, or curiosity).

- If the poem uses storm imagery plus anxious or worried verbs/phrasing (racing heart, shutters, dread, “coming,” “gathering”), choose:
- The speaker is concerned by the approaching storm.
- The mood is foreboding and fearful.

- If it uses positive sensory language about storms (delight, dancing in rain, smiling at lightning), choose:
- The speaker usually enjoys storms.
- (Then match mood accordingly — not foreboding.)

- If it focuses on the sun’s absence and the speaker wonders where it went (questions, puzzlement, searching images), choose:
- The speaker is concerned about where the sun went.
- The mood is perplexed and curious.

Paste the haiku and I’ll pick the two correct answers for you.
