We Are Seven echoes Wordsworth's recurring theme of childhood innocence and the child as teh teacher, teaching the adult instead of vice versa. As the adult constantly tries to reassure the young girl that she only has infact 4 other brothers and sisters instead of seven, the child is persistent and completely convinved that they, as a family are still seven as two of her siblings have passed away but are buried metres from their doorstep.
The poem is written in quatrains if I remember rightly?
And this structure style helps the flow of the conversation between the adult and child.
