  5. Imagery Language that Appeals to the senses

  6. Summer Skin By Death Cab For Cutie Squeaky swings and tall grass The longest shadows ever cast The water's warm and children swim And we frolicked about in our summer skin I don't recall a single care Just greenery and humid air Then Labor day came and went And we shed what was left of our summer skin On the night you left I came over And we peeled the freckles from our shoulders Our brand new coats so flushed and pinkAnd I knew your heart I couldn't winCause the season's change was a conduit And we'd left our love in our summer skin

  7. What emotions are associated with squeaky swings and tall grass? How does that contrast with the image of peeling skin?

  8. Can you guess the topic of this poem? • He seemed to know the harbor,So leisurely he swam;His fin,Like a piece of sheet-iron,Three-cornered,And with knife-edge,Stirred not a bubbleAs it movedWith its base-line on the water.His body was tubularAnd taperedAnd smoke-blue,And as he passed the wharfHe turned,And snapped at a flat-fishThat was dead and floating.And I saw the flash of a white throat,And a double row of white teeth,And eyes of metallic grey,Hard and narrow and slit.Then out of the harbor,With that three-cornered finShearing without a bubble the waterLithely,Leisurely,He swam—That strange fish,Tubular, tapered, smoke-blue,Part vulture, part wolf,Part neither—for his blood was cold. What senses does the poem appeal to?

  9. The Shark by E.J. Pratt • He seemed to know the harbor,So leisurely he swam;His fin,Like a piece of sheet-iron,Three-cornered,And with knife-edge,Stirred not a bubbleAs it movedWith its base-line on the water.His body was tubularAnd taperedAnd smoke-blue,And as he passed the wharfHe turned,And snapped at a flat-fishThat was dead and floating.And I saw the flash of a white throat,And a double row of white teeth,And eyes of metallic grey,Hard and narrow and slit.Then out of the harbor,With that three-cornered finShearing without a bubble the waterLithely,Leisurely,He swam—That strange fish,Tubular, tapered, smoke-blue,Part vulture, part wolf,Part neither—for his blood was cold.

  10. Excerpt From "I Wandered Lonely As A Cloud" By William Wordsworth I wandered lonely as a cloud That floats on high o'er vales and hills, When all at once I saw a crowd, A host, of golden daffodils; Beside the lake, beneath the trees, Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.   For oft, when on my couch I lie In vacant or in pensive mood, They flash upon that inward eye Which is the bliss of solitude; And then my heart with pleasure fills, And dances with the daffodils.   QUESTIONS: Identify THREE examples of imagery in the poem.
