Detailed explanation-1: -Imagery is visually descriptive or figurative language used especially in a literary work to describe various scenes, ideas and objects. Such language is very appealing to our senses.
Detailed explanation-2: -Imagery : when figurative language (like metaphor or simile ) evokes as a kind mental image any of the five senses, we call this imagery . “She is the sun” (a simile ) suggests imagery of light and warmth (the senses of sight and touch); thus she is likened-compared-to the sun in a positive ways though the imagery.
