<u>Imagery</u> refers to the representation of ideas, objects, feelings through the use of <u>figurative language</u>. Its main goal is to appeal to the <u>senses</u> and provoke a striking effect on the reader.  

An example of <u>imagery </u>would be:

<em>Her tears were </em><em>caressing</em><em> her face, whilst the room was slowly being </em><em>devoured</em><em> by absolute </em><em>darkness</em><em>. </em>This example appeals to the sense of touch, as well as it provides visual elements.

Kipish [7]

Answer:

I wake up in the morning, sunshine just barely peaking through the blinds. Yawning, I stretch my arms out to narrowly miss my spinning fan. The blankets are in a disarray as I try to detangle myself from them and make my way to the bathroom. The mirror is foggy as I begin to brush my teeth and the steam rises to bring a mist across the whole bathroom. I then make my way down stairs, each step sluggish and hesitant. Making my way to the kitchen, I perk up as I smell bacon and eggs. The scent floats down the hall and begins to brighten the day.
