Poetic Devices: Meaning of Words Most words convey several meanings or shades of meaning at the same time. It is the poet’s job to find words which, when used in relation to other words in the poem, will carry the precise intention of thought. Often, some of the more significant words may carry several layers or “depths” of meaning at once. The ways in which the meanings of words are used can be identified.

Poetic Devices: Imagery The IMAGES of words a poet uses words more consciously than any other writer. Although poetry often deals with deep human emotions or philosophical thought, people generally don’t respond very strongly to abstract words, even the words describing such emotions and thoughts. The poet, then, must embed within his work those words which do carry strong visual and sensory impact, words which are fresh and spontaneous but vividly descriptive. They must carefully pick and choose words that are just right. It is better to show the reader than to merely tell the reader. Imagery Sound Touch Tone Mood Taste Smell Synesthesia
