Read the poem by Emily Dickinson.

THE TULIP

She slept beneath a tree
Remembered but by me.
I touched her cradle mute;
She recognized the foot,
Put on her carmine suit, --
And see!

What does "put on her carmine suit" most likely mean?

The red tulip opened its petals.
The sleeping girl woke and put on a red swimming suit.
The shoe that touched the tulip was red.
The sun is setting and turning the western sky red.

Respuesta :

Carmine is a shade of red. I think this refers to the red tulip changing from a green bud to a red flower. So therefore, putting on her carmine suit as in turning into a beautiful shade of red. This might symbolize change and growth.

Answer:

  • The red tulip opened its petals.

Explanation:

This is on the grounds that in the poem it alludes to a tulip. Put on her carmine suit in all probability implies the tulip sprouts and abandons a green bud into a red blossom.
