Read this passage from the poem "There will Come Soft Rain" by Sara Teasdale (1884 - 1933). What do the details in this passage evoke?

There will come soft rain and the smell of the ground,

And swallows circling with their shimmering sound;

And frogs in the pools singing at night,

And wild plum-trees in tremulous white;

Robins will wear their feathery fire

Whistling their whims on a low fence-wire.

The beauty of nature

The joy of family

The safety of civilization

The aftermath of war
