Read the following poem, "A Birthday" by Christina Rossetti and answer the question below.
My heart is like a singing bird   Whose nest is a weathered shoot;

My heart is gladder than all these  
Because my love is come to me.
QUESTION: What mood do the details of the poem convey? (Look specifically at the three things the speaker compares her heart to.)

• Sorrow
• Happiness
• Excitement
• Nervousness
