(Merriam Dictionary)

4. In poetry, the use of imagery adds rhythm and beauty to the lines of a poem. Imagery is a language that appeals to the senses. It refers to words and phrases that create vivid sensory experiences for the reader.While the majority of images are visual, imagery may also appeal to senses of smell, hearing, taste and touch. It is one of the most commonly used poetic devices.

5. Poem is a piece of writing that partakes of the nature of both speech and song that is nearly always rhythmical,using mataphorical, and often exhibits such formal elements as meter, rhyme and stanzaic structure. Poet is a person who has the gift of poetic thought, imagination, and creation, together with eloquence of expression.

Stanza- a division of a poem created by arranging the lines into a unit, often repeated in the same pattern of meter and rhyme throughout the poem;

12. Recite: When you are Old William B. Yeats When you are old and gray and full of sleep And nodding by the fire, take down this book, And slowly read, and dream of the soft look Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;

13. How many loved your moments of glad grace, And loved your beauty with love false or true; But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you, And loved the sorrows of your changing face.

14. And bending down beside the glowing bars, Murmur, a little sadly, how love fled And paced upon the mountains overhead, And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.
