Summary: The author writers about her dangerous encounter with a snake as she and her companion were taking a stroll in the beutiful autumn weather. She is showing that nature should be respected but humans forget about the beauty of the natural world but beautiful experiences can be made,
Form: Consistent rhming scheme (ABAB) which is destroyed in the last stanza where the rhyming scheme is ABCA which could shock her shock upon realising the danger she was in after the incident and the fact that there was a perfect rhyming scheme could suggest she was telling herself to keep calm and only after did she allow herself to panic. There are four stanzas each with four lines and shows the writer doesnt let her composture slip and could show that nature is always there and regular and will never change and will always be beautiful,
Tone: Curious, frighened, tense, scared, worried, respect, admiration
