B. Pertinent Ideas
A. Imagery
imaginations through language (1984), imagery is words and phrases which produced
the experience to the reader’s and poet’s mind (1973). We create mental picture

through words that has spoken or written so we image the word in daily experience
(Smith, 1985: 86). Poetry directly appeals to our sense through rhythm, and its music
Imagery however, the word suggests with visual sense, eyesight or things we
can be seen in our mind’s eyes; usually this definition used in the past and was not
broadened. Nowadays imagery is not only visual sense which directs our eyesight,
but also includes all the senses. As Perrine in Sense and Sense said that but imagery
may also represent sound (auditory imagery); a smell (olfactory imagery); a taste
eyesight, but usually followed by another images, the main point of imagery is
evoking the reader mind and form mental picture in order to suggest meaning without
poet directly uses denotative meaning or explicitly conveys the true meaning. The
image can be movement, smell, a taste, hearing, or followed by other images. It lies

touch sense. For instances: “A dungeon horrible on all side round”, “As one great
furnace flamed”.
smelling sense, like “fragrant”, unpleasant smell and others related to aroma. For
instances: “The buzz saw snarled and rattled in the yard”,” Sweet scented stuff when
as sweet and briny and others relate to the flavor. (i.e. she is as sweet as red apple),
the word “apple” represents sweet taste to our imagination. For instances: “She is as
of human body, such hunger, thirst, pain, etc. For instances: “Where gat ye your
dinner, Lord Randal my son?”,” For I’m weary for hunting and fain wald lie down”.

7) Kinesthetics imagery is called as an imagery which conveys a sense of
movement, or tension in the muscles or joints. Like in the haunted house, can be
studied how the poet describes the kinesthetic imagery. (i.e. the black bats tumble and
joint of ours. For instances: “Hanging on the ceiling waiting for preys”, “The black

It's a summer day,

My feelings kick in,
When it's not us two

DAYS by BRIAN MOSES
Days fly by on holidays,
They escape like birds
Released from cages.
What a shame you can’t buy
Tokens of time, save them up
And lengthen the good days
Or maybe you could Lear out time
From days that drag, then pay if back
On holidays, wild days,
Days you wish would les forever,
You could wear these days with pride,
Fasten them like poppies to your coat,
Or keep them in a tin, like sweets
A confection of days
To be held on the tongue
And tasted, now and then.

At the playground by Brian Moses
When we went to the playground
I swung on the swings,
I said on the slide,
I hung from the rings.
I raced over to mum
For a kiss and a cuddle,
But as we were leaving,
I fell in a puddle!
15
To be dried by the morning sun
Mrs. Driver from next door
Was a witness at the scene
When aliens snatched my underpants
I’m glad that they were clean!
It seems they were quite choosy
As nothing else was taken
Do aliens wear underpants
Or were they just mistaken?
I think I have a theory
As to what they wanted them for,
They needed to block off a draught

This ghoul was never taught right from wrong,
it lives by its muscles, is incredibly strong.
It's ugly as Medusa whose snakes have just woken,
with a nose like a boxer's that's regularly broken.
Eyes like saucers, the flying kind,
acts like a creature that¹s lost its mind.

I Go Ape

When I hang upside down, I’m orang-utang,
when I climb a tree, I’m chimpanzee,
when I’m tough as Attila, you can call me gorilla,
but to keep in shape, I go ape.
