Question

Read the poem “The Purple Cow,” by Gelett Burgess. The Purple Cow (Reflections on a Mythic Beast Who's Quite Remarkable, at Least.) I never saw a Purple Cow; I never hope to See One; But I can Tell you, Anyhow, I'd rather See than Be One. What is the main difference between “The Purple Cow” and Frost’s poem "Mending Wall"?

Answer 1

Well, I think, the main point that makes the difference between "Mending Wall" and   “The Purple Cow”  is actually demonstrated by the rhyme. Just read each poem one more time and feel that one of them is readed easily, words matched with each other like a song's lyrics so that you can smoothly go on reading whereas  "Mending Wall" is made with structure of blank verse that emphasises every line and makes reader feel it deeply.

Answer 2

As we already know after reading both poems. The Mending wall is about a conflict between two neighbors while “The Purple Cow” talks about what it might be a mythic beast of creature with a theme of something out of the ordinary.

But the main difference between “The Purple Cow” and Frost’s poem “Mending Wall” is the use of timing in the purple cow.

I hope it helps, Regards.
