Answer:
Imagery in literature refers to the use of words and analogy that appeals to the five senses.
Starting with Paragraph 7, the narrator states that after her lofty dreams of America, the fact that she needs to work to pay for her next meal and rent brought her back to reality...in her own words she states <em>"I had to put my feet down on earth"</em>
Another example of imagery used can be found in paragraph 1. She calls out to America for understanding as there are many immigrants who were beating out their heart at its gates. In other words, there are many immigrants who seek to enter into America. She speaks as though America were a living being.
The act of immigration is typified by the beating of hearts at America's gates.
In paragraph 5 she speaks of <em>hidden sap of centuries that would find release -colours that never saw light. </em>
The last part of that sentence is a good use of imagery as colour and light are very visual.
Cheers.
