Question

Seacoast Silhouette All up and down the dunes, the tall green grasses dance, as the wind plays lively tunes across the sandy expanse. But the moon above is a statue, 5 silent and somber and still, its reflection on the sea is a tattoo, that we watch from upon the hill.

Answer 2

IThe metaphor affects the meaning in the sense that it is not at all helping the other features in showing positive emotions.

The moon becomes the spoiler of the scene.
