I think the author ends with "the sight of my own particular eyes" to make it clear that this is her own personal view.
The author begins with opposites to show the conflicting points of view she holds about her prairie town.
Yes -- about the words. The appeal to our sense of hearing.
What can you visualize in paragraph 4?
thanks very much ms. sue :)
in paragraph 4 she tell about excitement she have riding horses. she tell about mocassins squeaking and slithering on the hard rutted snow of the roads.. she tell about adventure she have.
Right. This paragraph is full of images of children having fun.

There be symbolism in paragraph 17. The crescenting of a fish stand for happiness, it stand for food and wealth. The sun represent new dawn. The sand ripples she sees on top of water be because she see things differently.

You'll find several examples of alliteration if you look only at the first letter of two words.
Personification:
