Tone

Tone
Definition: The way or attitude in which something is told; it will usually have to do with emotions. Poems can have multiple tones.

Example: In the poem "If," the tone at the end is rejoiceful and celebratory because the speaker is celebrating becoming a man.

 
Significance: The tone of a literary piece can affect your interpretation of it. The tone can influence your mood in the real world or can make you write in that certain tone.
