Storm on the Island by Seamus Heaney is about the power of ... affecting the inhabitants of the island.
Nature
Heaney uses the metaphor... to show how much damage the winds can really cause.
"leaves and branches can raise a tragic chorus in a gale,"
Heaney uses alliteration in the quote... as the "f" sound creates a sinister image of the storm.
"So that you can live in fear forgetting that it pummels your house too."
Storm on the Island has a quote that shows that nature isn't protecting the humans on the island - nature is in control and is making life hell down there...
"No natural shelter,"
Heaney has a clever use of a simile in the quote... to show that the sea can suddenly turn dangerous in a storm.
"Like a tame cat turned savage,"
Heaney uses a oxymoron in the quote... to suggest that the wind is invisible, so it shouldn't be feared, but is due to the raging storm.
"Strange, it is a huge nothing that we fear."
Storm on the Island is a poem about the power of nature, so it can link to Ozymandias and The Prelude.
