Charlotte Zolotow's poem 'Change' expresses the idea that humans experience both change and contancy.
- The poem contains a comparison between the eternal cycle of the seasons and the persona's perception of her own contrasting change in perspective
- Repetition, "still" and "as it did last year" emphasizes constancy
- Aliteration, "still stings" and colour imagery, "cold and white" used to display the seasons.
- Spring represented using simile, "like a whisper in the night"
- 5 stanzas of diminishing length, ending with a couplet which sums up the perona's change, "It is only I/Who have changed" <--use of first person to highlight personal growth.
- Confirm's the adage, 'things do not change, people do.'
