Answer 1

Barter means to trade or exchange goods or services without money. The poem uses word choice, figurative language and poetic devices to convey the meaning of the poem by using imagery, metaphors and connotation. Some examples of this are when the author says

“Music like a curve of gold,

Scent of pine trees in the rain”

in paragraph two. This is an example of imagery.
