How does the poet present the image of waves in "Oread"?

In H.D.’s poem “Oread,” the speaker commands the sea to “whirl up, sea” and “hurl your green over us,” then asks it to “cover us with your pools of fir.” The image of the waves is presented through a comparison to trees—specifically fir trees—so the correct choice is by comparing them to trees.
