How To Write About Poetry

Education : English

Often in exams you will be given a piece of poetry to comment on. You should write about the:
IMAGERY and SYMBOLISM used

Discuss in detail, not at face value.

Example: an eagle may not mean just the bird but represent power, grace and freedom

Also, the
FORM and STRUCTURE of the poem

Is rhyming important? What grammatical structures are used? Alliteration?
