The answer is a. Realism is the way a person sees things in the real world. It can't be postmodernism because this poem rhymes and postmodernism poems are free-verse poems (they follow no patterns). It can't be classicism because classicism is when someone is referring to something that happened in the past (in the medieval era). Of course it is not romanticism because it has nothing romantic in it.
