The Oven Bird By Robert Frost (1874-1963)

1 There is a singer everyone has heard,

Loud, a mid-summer and a mid-wood bird,

Who makes the solid tree trunks sound again.

He says that leaves are old and that for flowers

5Mid-summer is to spring as one to ten.

He says the early petal-fall is past

When pear and cherry bloom went down in showers

On sunny days a moment overcast;

And comes that other fall we name the fall.

10 He says the highway dust is over all.

The bird would cease and be as other birds

But that he knows in singing not to sing.

The question that he frames in all but words

Is what to make of a diminished thing.

Which term describes lines 11-12?

Metaphor.

Explanation:

Lines 11 and 12 have a strong metaphor, which is the term that can describe these lines.

Metaphor is the subjunctive comparison between two elements that have a certain similarity. In these lines the author compares the bird in the poem, with the other birds, he shows that this bird is different from the others, but one day the dust will cover everything (referring to a burial), that is, on the day the bird dies, it will be like any other bird.
