Read the passage from "The Caged Bird."

The free bird thinks of another breeze

and the trade winds soft through the sighing trees

and the fat worms waiting on a dawn bright lawn

and he names the sky his own.

Which additional line best matches the tone of the stanza?

and he thunders through the stormy sky

and he drifts among the cottony clouds

and he charges past the sorrowing sky

and he flies right through circular clouds

Well thunders is aggressive whereas the tone of this passage is peaceful and laid back. Flies right through is sort of passive but still not exactly peaceful. With B and C left what do you think the answer is?
