Trees+are+Made+of+Doors

In "Trees Are Made of Doors" there are several elements that make it unique. There is rhyme, alliteration, and all other kinds of figurative language. It has a unique form, and somewhat of a rhythm. It is very unique. The form of this poem is if the form of free verse poetry. There are three stanzas. In the first stanza there are six lines, in the second stanza, there are five lines, and in the third stanza there are four lines. There is some rhyming at the end of the lines but I'm not sure of the rhyme scheme. For example the last words of the third and fourth lines in the first stanza: "chest",and "nest". There are several metaphors in this poem. For example: " I guess we can't always be the shade" in the last line of the last stanza. It compares people to shade meaning that people have to grow old and eventually go away like the shade does. The meaning of this essay, to me, is that we all have to grow up sometimes and for some people, they have to see their children grow up and become adults, and have to accept the fact that they're becoming old.
