Does is contain symbolism? I – IMAGERY: What pictures do you get in your mind when you read the poem? Does the poem contain similes, metaphors , or personification? Why do you think the poet has included these images in the poem? L – LANGUAGE: What words has the poet used to create an image? Are there are complicated words? Is the language simple to understand? Which words and phases create the images? E – EFFECT: What is the effect of the poem? What does the poem make you feel or think about? What opinion does it show about the subject?
