Imagery
Definition: Parts of a literary piece that use the senses to help the reader make the poem feel more real; they can feel like they're a part of it. The types are: Auditory (hearing), Visual (signt), Tactile (ouch), Gustatory (aste), Olfactory (smell), Organic (internal feelings such as anger and joy), and kinesthetic (movement that you can sense).
Example: In the poem, "Alabanza," it created visual imagery because I could see the workplace, but also organic because I felt the mourning feeling for the lost lives.
Significance: Imagery helps you create a scene in your head while you're reading so you can better understand the author's meaning. It can help you feel like you're part of whatever is described.
