The speaker in "Mending Wall"

"Mending Wall" is a poem by Robert Frost in which the speaker and his neighbor fix a stone wall that separates their properties. The neighbor thinks the wall is important, but the speaker thinks it is utterly unnecessary.

The speaker is clearly not taking the task seriously. He describes the repair of the wall as an "outdoor game," as if he and the neighbor were just children having fun. He even goes as far as talking of using "a spell to make [the stones] balance."

Taking the information above into consideration, we can select letter D as the correct option.
