    The main difference between "The Purple Cow" and Frost's poem "Mending Wall" is the use of rhyming in "The Purple Cow"

    Explanation:

    "The Purple Cow" by Gelett Burgess has simple kids rhyme that is, in fact, a children's song, it has been considered by many as a silly poem, while "Mending Wall" by Robert Frost is blank verse, a form of poetry with unrhymed lines organized in an iambic pentameter, this makes it the opposite of Burgess's poem.
