Read the excerpt from "Song" by Ella Wheeler Wilcox. Then, answer the question that follows.

With the sun, and the skies, and the birds above me,
Birds that sing as they wheel and fly—
With the winds to follow and say they love me—
Who could be lonely? O no, not I!

How does the personification in bold contribute to the tone of the poem?

It makes the speaker seem fearful of nature.
It reflects a feeling of dreariness towards nature.
It shows the speaker admires nature.
It makes the speaker appear uninterested in nature.
