Question

fly fishing
1 i hurl my arm and gently flick my wrist,
my fishing rod bends like an archers bow.
the line snakes like a lasso in the air,
the lure lands like a dragonfly below.
5 the river ripples once and then lies still,
and i lie still—i stand, and watch, and wait.
i see a curious fish approach, alone,
he surfaces and swallows up the bait.
and as i reel him in, he glares at me,
which best explains why the reader emphasizes stand, watch, and wait?
a to highlight rhythm

c to highlight emotion
d to highlight imagery
