The poet Sandra Cisneros uses imagery to illustrate a joyful tone in the poem “Good Hotdogs.” For example, “We’d rum straight from school instead of home”(Cisneros 610). This conveys joy since the children are so excited to get a hotdog. Also this displays the children’s enthusiasm and happiness for the hotdogs. Another example would be “ We’d eat you humming and me swinging my legs” (Cisneros 611). This illustrates a joyful tone because the child is humming ,and when you’re humming you are enjoying your time. Once again this shows that they’re happy and aren’t mad or unhappy. Since these demonstrations of imagery allow readers to see and understand the poems radiant tone, the reader is able to visualize the poets writing.
