Answer 1

B. my and i
my and i are single person words

Answer 2

Answer: B.“my” and “I”

"I" and "my" are words that describe a single person. If a poem is written using these words exclusively, then we can safely conclude that the perspective is that of a single speaker. The "perspective" of a poem or narrative work refers to the point of view from which the text is written.
