"Imagery and Figurative Language."

At first, I thought imagery was a picture in a poem,but I learned that this was wrong.Actually, imagery is language that appeals to the five senses.
I also learned about figurative language. I used to think figurative language was was different kind of languages, but I learned that figurative language is a word or phrase that describes one thing in terms of another and is not meant to be understood on a literal level.
The three main types of figurative language are, similes,metaphors, and personification.
