Imagery

Definition: using your senses to describe objects

Example:  From this stanza, the imagery tells you that it's dinner time.
The winter evening settles down
With smell of steaks in passageways.
Six o'clock.
Explanation: Imagery helps you visualize what the poet is describing. It gets the reader to use their senses and think deeply on what they are trying to imagine.
