This concept is stressed in the final stanza of the poem, when the speaker states, “The rhizobia are not actually a part of the plant, but they always live with the legumes: a kind of underground railroad moving secretly up and down the roots.” The rhizobia, a form of bacteria, are intended to be symbolic of the…

In the poem “A Song In The Front Yard” by Gwendolyn Brooks, imagery, rhyme, and symbolism are used to describe the barriers between the “front yard” children and the “backyard” children.

To highlight it, you can add paths that draw eyes to the focal point and make your garden look attractive. Embracing your odd shape yard isn’t challenging anymore.
