imagist

imagist- imagism was a movement around the beginning of the 20th century, which focussed on creating vivid images using sharp, clear language. In act the main goal of the imagist was to use basic language but use the exactly correct word. They formed in response to the gregorian romantic times and victorian poetry of earlier times which had what they thought lots of careless thinking. The movement avoided cliche's and merely suggests themes rather than presents full ideas.Alfred lord Tennyson and henry Longfellow were among the leaders of this movement along with TE Hulme and ezra pound. Ezra pound called imagery "that which presents an intellectual and emotional complex in an instant of time."

so much depends

a red wheel
barrow

glazed with rain

beside the white
chickens.
