Hughes compares the color of people's faces to poppies.

Explanation:

Hughes tries to put into words the essence of diversity and the respect that there should be between people. His poem "Daybreak in Alabama" describes how a perfect world and a civilized society should function. Something so simple and illustrative as "soft dew" and "swamp mist" that is common to Alabama, can represent life's real meaning and can lead people to reflect on the basic but beautiful details that our world has to offer mankind in order to live in harmony.

d. Poppies

Explanation:

In his poem "Daybreak in Alabama," Hughes compares the color of people's faces to that of poppies. He tells us that he will write music, and he reflects on the elements that will be included in his songs:

I'm gonna put some tall tall trees in it

And the scent of pine needles

And the smell of red clay after rain

And long red necks

And poppy colored faces

And big brown arms
