Why does Sojourner Truth refer to her audience as her children?

English

I think that Sojourner Truth used the word children because it is how she would explain things to her children. This word signifies that the following words she will be uttering are of dire importance. She connects to the audience by making them remember that they were once children and they had to listen to the wisdom of their elders, especially, their mothers. 

Sojourner's use of the word children emphasizes her being a woman and a mother. Someone who is worthy of being listened too as she imparts words of wisdom.

Write a poem, focused on a topic of your choosing. You must use at least two of the figurative language techniques from this les
8090 [49]

Answer:

The happiness of waking up early.

When the day dawns

I hear the sun calling me

I get up quickly, taking his order

For another day is beginning.

It seems uncomfortable when I speak

But waking up early is awesome

For the day full of opportunities begins

and renew my hopes with dew.

Many do not admire my prowess

Waking up early every day

They prefer the company of the moon as nocturnal animals

And they sleep all day to make up for it.

I really like the company of the sun

Of heat and movement.

Everyone seems refreshed by the day

And that is my encouragement.

Explanation:

The poem was written in white verse, with four stanzas and four verses each.

As was asked in the question above, two types of figurative language were used. One challenge is personification, which allowed the sun to have the capacity to call someone, which only humans can do. This can be seen on the line "I hear the sun calling me"

In addition, the metaphor was used to make a comparison between people who sleep late and nocturnal animals. This can be seen on the line "They prefer the company of the moon as nocturnal animals ".
