Interpretation

Definition:  Get into the poem, use the images, concepts in the poem and poet(character)'s background to feel about the poem's meanings.


Example:  My Captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still,

          My father does not feel my are, he has no pulse nor will.  

       — O Captain!My Captain! ( the picture above is the interpretation of the poem)
