Imagery♥

Definition: 
 Imagery in poetry is the word to describe  the poem makes the reader "see" in their imagination.  It is the colors,sounds, and sometimes feelings evoked by the poem. 


Example: 
This is an excerpt from" Preludes" by T.S Eliot. 

The winter evening settles down

With smell of steaks in passageways.

Six o'clock.

The burnt-out ends of smoky days.

And now a gusty shower wraps

The grimy scraps

Of withered leaves about your feet

And newspapers from vacant lots;

The showers beat

On broken blinds and chimney-pots,

And at the corner of the street

A lonely cab-horse steams and stamps.

And then the lighting of the lamps.  

                                     

Significant: 

      I think imagery is important because poem is all about inspiring feeling and give message to readers. Imagery is a great way to make readers imagination, and more involved for that poem.
