This Question is based on the following passage:
As I Awake All of my senses are met by the morning As I awake breathing in a new day, Here by the window I opened last evening, How the world changed while I drifted away. Darkness is gone, though it seemed it would never; Sunlight is smiling and nature survives. I can believe that we all live forever When I observe how the morning arrives. Birds sing their concert and children are playing; Flowers have scented the air and it's free; Life is renewed and it seems to be saying There is a place in its promise for me. There are some times in our lives when we savor Being a part of a much larger plan. Life is a feast and we each add a flavor; I'll make it better, believing I can.

This Question is based on the following passage:
The Solitary Reaper Behold her, single in the field, Yon solitary Highland Lass! Reaping and singing by herself; Stop here, or gently pass! Alone she cuts and binds the grain, And sings a melancholy strain; O listen! For the vale profound Is overflowing with the sound. No nightingale did ever chant More welcome notes to weary Bands of travelers in some shady haunt, Among Arabian sands: A voice so thrilling ne'er was heard In spring-time from the cuckoo-bird. Breaking the silence of the seas Among the farthest Hebrides.
