Question

The fog comes

on little cat feet.

It sits looking
over harbor and city
on silent haunches
and then moves on.

What is the main similarity between “Fog” and Frost’s poem "Mending Wall"?

Both use everyday language.
Both use iambic pentameter.
Both use strict meter.
Both use blank verse.

(Not D or B)

Answer 1

A : both use everyday language | becus i just did it

Answer 2

I would say the correct answer is A. Both use everyday language. Both Sandburg and Frost use common, conversational language, without poetic artificialities or any extravagance in form and style. There are no strict rhyme and meter, such as iambic pentameter or blank verse. They communicate their message directly, in an intimate and easily accessible tone.
