A form of imagery is present in "Mother To Son" by Langston Hughes. Lines 2-6 of this poem "Mother to Son" state that, "Life for me ain’t been no crystal stair./It’s had tacks in it,/And splinters,/And boards torn up,/And places with no carpet on the floor—" The form of imagery shown in these lines is "see"/sight because you are able to visualize the challenges they were facing .The reader may envision how difficult life was for the mother when she described these things to her son, and the reader can image what these various things looked like, allowing the reader to understand how difficult life was for her as she talked to her kid.Because her life has not been a "crystal stair," readers can get a visual in their minds of exactly what her life looked like for her, which makes it easy to think about how her life was not a clear path, and life is hard. These concepts may be seen and sensed through these lines, which is how imagery was exhibited and successful in this case.

A type of imagery represented in "Mother to Son" by Langston Hughes is states in, "
I’se been a-climbin’ on,

And reachin’ landin’s,

And turnin’ corners,

And sometimes goin’ in the dark

Where there ain’t been no light."
This to me shows an imagery of never giving up if there is something in your way like "no light." This to me brought my attention because usually you cant do anything in the dark, but this gives motivation that you can be useful and you can do the impossible with no light. It also explains that it wont be easy, it will be hard and that is actually life.

A form of imagery that is being presented is in 3-6. In the poem "Mother to son" it states "’its had tacks in it,
And splinters,
And boards torn up,
And places with no carpet on the floor—
Bare.
This is a form of imagery because we can see how the way it was described it feels like you feel the splinters and you feel the pain.
So we can also see or imagine a place with no carpet and walking barefoot. So these lines show a form of imagery by imagining to see or feel what a person saw or felt. Therefore we can see how all of those points are being shown in those lines in the poem, I can feel like I am walking on splinters and I can imagine how it feels. I can also imagine myself walking on a carpet barefoot. So this is a form of imagery. ~Stacey G
