Imagery is especially important in poetry because of its compressed form. This means that poems tend to be short (compressed), unlike prose, which is written using sentences. Since poems are so short by nature, poets try to use as few words as possible to describe their thoughts and feelings.

This is where imagery comes into play - imagery refers to the use of very few, and very descriptive words to convey an idea. Instead of using lengthy sentences to describe something, this could be done in poetry using just a few vivid words which clearly paint a picture in our mind. This is done to shorten the length of a poem, while also keeping all relevant information.

PLZ HELP!!! 50 POINTS!!! WILL RATE BRAINLIEST!!!

Answer:

bro please give me BRAINLIEST ANSWER

Explanation:

spondees, anapests and dactyls. In this document the stressed syllables are marked in boldface type rather than the tradition al "/" and "x." Each unit of rhythm is called a "foot" of poetry.

The meters with two-syllable feet are

IAMBIC (x /) : That time of year thou mayst in me behold

TROCHAIC (/ x): Tell me not in mournful numbers

SPONDAIC (/ /): Break, break, break/ On thy cold gray stones, O Sea!

Meters with three-syllable feet are

ANAPESTIC (x x /): And the sound of a voice that is still

DACTYLIC (/ x x): This is the forest primeval, the murmuring pines and the hemlock (a trochee replaces the final dactyl)

Each line of a poem contains a certain number of feet of iambs, trochees, spondees, dactyls or anapests. A line of one foot is a monometer, 2 feet is a dimeter, and so on--trimeter (3), tetrameter (4), pentameter (5), hexameter (6), heptameter (7), and o ctameter (8). The number of syllables in a line varies therefore according to the meter. A good example of trochaic monometer, for example, is this poem entitled "Fleas":

Adam

Had'em.
