The narrator uses figurative language, tone, and concepts to give the readers a better understanding of how Janie see's life. The figuratice language is used to describe Janie and her thoughts. It says " Oh to be a pear tree- any tree in bloom!" (11) The narrator gives Janie the characteristics of a tree and uses the word bloom as a sexual term. This sentences is figurativly saying that Janie wants to find love and go on an adventure. She isnt blooming yet, which means that she hasn't found the love she is searching for. The passage uses an extended metaphor of trees bloosoming and of nature to describe how Janie sees life. In the passage Janie has a very dissapointed tone because she is unhappy with her life. Because of this she also has an anxious tone because she is waiting for a new chapter in her life to begin. In this passage the tone stays consistent to show that she wants a new life but it has not yet come. Some of the main ideas that help the reader understand Janie and what she wants for life are wanting to find her love and her waiting at the gate for her life to start. Together these ideas form a theme of " when the buds bloom, you will find your happiness."
