The poet uses personification to delineate summer’s day more picturesquely than any painter could. Poet uses various compound words like :
"The Sun shone whole at intervals…..were optional" - shows that the sun is playing the game of hide and seek with the clouds referred to as his "Estates".
Insects humming, the chirping of birds, and wind playing through the leaves, which leaves an impact of musical beauty to the perfect summer day. The way the scene is described
“A bird sat careless on the fence –
One gossiped in the Lane”
clearly tells it is a pleasant summer day when everything is in its perfect bloom. The display of birds, flowers, orchards, tune from miniature creatures, very nicely delineates a summer’s day.
In this very unique way, the poet tries to personify the various elements and portrays more beautifully than any painter could.
