Fitzgerald describes Nick as non-judgmental, that he knows not everyone has had the same advantages he has had in life which helps him befriend and understand people. 

Because Nick is the narrator, it is important to set the character up in this way because the reader will be more likely to trust the observations of the other characters that Nick makes. If the reader thinks he is too judgmental, they might not believe his story as fully.

Kamila [148]

Hello. You did not inform the poem to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered accurately. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

The use of similes and metaphors in a poem is done with the objective of extending the meaning of the message that the poet wants to pass through the poem, therefore, the poet writes comparisons that present new and deeper and more imposing meanings.
