Question

Consider the poems. "The Corn Harvest" by William Carlos Williams An excerpt from "After Apple Picking" by Robert Frost Summer ! the painting is organized about a young reaper enjoying his noonday rest completely relaxed from his morning labors sprawled in fact sleeping unbuttoned on his back the women have brought him his lunch perhaps a spot of wine they gather gossiping under a tree whose shade carelessly he does not share the resting center of their workaday world. My long two-pointed ladder's sticking through a tree Toward heaven still. And there's a barrel that I didn't fill Beside it, and there may be two or three Apples I didn't pick upon some bough. But I am done with apple-picking now. Essence of winter sleep is on the night, The scent of apples; I am drowsing off. I cannot shake the shimmer from my sight I got from looking through a pane of glass I skimmed this morning from the water-trough, And held against the world of hoary grass. It melted, and I let it fall and break. But I was well Upon my way to sleep before it fell, And I could tell What form my dreaming was about to take. Magnified apples appear and reappear, Stem end and blossom end, And every fleck of russet showing clear.

Answer 2

The need for rest after work.

Step-by-step explanation:

William Carlos Williams' poem "The Corn Harvest" is a poem of short lines which describes a worker resting comfortably under the shade of a tree. Robert Frost's poem "After Apple Picking" also describes a worker resting after a long day's work of picking apples.

The given excerpt from both poems describe how the worker(s) needs rest after the heavy work they had been doing. Williams describes the painting of a young reaper who is "enjoying his /noonday rest/ completely/ relaxed / from his morning labors". Frost's poem also mentions a worker who is "done with apple-picking now. / Essence of winter sleep is on the night". Thus, both poems/ excerpts show the need of a deserved rest of the corn harvester and the apple picker.
