imagery

Definition- when using your five senses in poetry like tactile olfactory imagery gustatory auditory

Example-
sight: the rose is bright red
hearing: it sounds like the chirping of several birds, with their high voices.
smell: the air smells like going to the countryside. fresh and green. no smell of smoke but the fresh waters and the leaves.
touch: it feels bumpy yet gives off a welcoming warmth
taste: it tastes sweet yet spicy at once, with a tinge of orange taste.
 
Signifigance of the term- This is an important part of poetry because it talks about your five senses and theres a lot of description when you talk about your senses and you can compare a lot of different things to your five senses.
