Into the woods I go

Book and blanket in tow.

Like an explorer
I search for territory
among the trees,
then stake my claim
with a patchwork flag.

Like a ship
my blanket sails
on oceans of words
to worlds
unknown.

Where will I go?
Wherever the pages set my mind to roam.

How does a simile most clearly contribute to the tone of this poem?

A. The simile "to worlds unknown" creates a mysterious tone because unknown lands are associated with mystery.
B. The simile "like a ship" creates an adventurous tone because ships are associated with sailing to unknown lands.
C. The simile "like a ship" creates a childish tone because children enjoy playing with toy ships.
D. The simile "to worlds unknown" creates a confident tone because a person must be enthusiastic when traveling to foreign lands.
