A poet relies on his feeling to convey the current situations that they are in. Poets usually allow their emotions to drive their words and it allows their thoughts to flow. Poetry is like a playground where poets can explore their inner thought and question everything. Its their view of the world that allows them to paint us a picture of their dreams, aspirations and nightmares that they have encountered. What makes it so effective is that they allow the raw emotion to drive the delivery of their words.
Henceforth, through Dobson’s poetic vision, readers discover new insights and experience through curiosity and maturation. As one could argue that Dobson is very much like an imagist poet, as they are very visual and highly subjective, they have a haiku tone to them in terms of their
Firstly, Donne's poetry is highly distinctive and individual, adopting a multitude of images. The poem offers elaborate parallels between apparently dissimilar things, “Then as th’ earth’s inward narrow crooked lanes, Do purge sea water’s fretful salt away,” (Donne, Lines 6-7) Donne's poem expresses a wide variety of emotions and attitudes, as if Donne himself were trying to define his experience of love through his poetry. Although, “The Triple Fool” gives a limited view of Donne’s attitude towards love, Donne treats the poem as a part of experience, giving insight into the complex range of experiences concerning love and grief, “I thought, if I could draw my pains through rhyme's vexation, I should them allay.” (Donne, Lines 8-9) Overall, the imagery in “The Triple Fool,” contributes to Donne’s sorrowful diction of love and grief. Moreover, Donne explains that poetry is for love and grief, and not for pleasing things, but songs make love and grief even worse. The first verse of the poem states that he is two times a fool, a fool for loving, and a fool for admitting it, “I am two fools, I know, for loving, and for saying so in whining poetry.” (Donne, Lines 1-3) Donne follows to say that he would still not be wise, even if “she” (Donne, Line 5) returned his love.
In the poem “Introduction to Poetry” by “Billy Collins”, language techniques are used, including similes, metaphors and extended metaphors. These features are used to contribute to the overall meaning of the poem, which is to enjoy poetry for what it is rather than trying too hard to find the hidden meaning of poems. In the opening stanza of the poem, a simile is used to compare a poem to a colour slide. The speaker says: “I ask them to take a poem and hold it up to the light like a colour slide.” When you hold a slide up to the light, you can see the detail and meaning of it. This relates back to the main idea of the poem, and not trying too hard to find the hidden meaning of poems.

Georgia O’Keeffe Georgia O’Keefe paints wispy curved shapes and her use of thin paint and clear colours evokes feelings of mystical silence. Her work is very different to certain aspects of Anna Keay’s work- abstract shapes based on line, colour, light and dark masses, repetition, and some symmetry. It is however smooth and soft like Renoir when he paints his people but hers is no way near as detailed. ‘Red Poppy’ Oil on canvas, 1927 This painting gives a profound impact, mainly because we never look at something so insignificant in such great detail, as it is a large and vivid, persimmon-red shape which shows an extreme close-up of a poppy. I think the original of this piece is supposed to be smaller, but the viewer still sees the flower in a huge perspective because the angle and position from which the painting was created makes the viewer feel like they are very close to the painting anyway.
When compared to Van Gogh’s chaos of lines and swirls, Sol LeWitt’s perfectly formed horizontal, diagonal and vertical lines show disorder that can be controlled and explained.

The distinctively visual is used throughout peter goldsworthys novel ' maestro ' and the painting By edward munch ' the scream ' 1893. there is some overlap between the distinctively visual techniques used by these writers and painters. This is done through the use of visual imagery, metaphor, exaggeration and the use of colour. The extended metaphor of peter goldsworthy “to describe the world is always to simplify its texture, to coarsen the weave: to lose the particular in general”, portrays that once you try to represent something, you lose something of its real life essence and that the act of writing about something in the world simplifies it. Both texts revel important insights into human experiences by showing the reader how the character
For instance a stanzas definition “In poetry a stanza is a grouped set of lines within a poem…”. In a prose stanzas are not used instead periods are put in at the end to start another line. Poetry is different in these ways but have similarities with prose. A similarity between the two is that they both have is they are both forms of literature and they both compliment each other. One way they compliment each other is that a poem can become a story and a story can become a screenplay.
