Answer:

She contrasts the beauty of nature with the ugliness of humanity.

Step-by-step explanation:

The poem "There Will Come Soft Rains" was written by Sara Teasdale about the differing nature of nature and humans. Within the short twelve lines, she presents a contrasting picture of what nature and humanity look like, and how nature won't even care even if humans destroy themselves completely.

In the first three stanzas, the speaker describes the beauty of nature in a perfect moment of peace, with the "soft rains" and "the smell of the ground". The "frogs in the pool singing at night" and robins will whistle while no one will care about the humans. The speaker then went on to emphasize how "not one will care at last when it is done [...] if mankind perished utterly". This presents a contrast of nature's beauty along with the ugliness of humanity.
