Interpretation


Definition:
Interpretation-An explanation of a creative work such as a poem.


Example:
I celebrate myself, and sing myself,
And what I assume you shall assume,
For every atom belonging to me
as good belongs to you.
- Walt Whitman

This poem is about enjoying life and its benefits.


Significance:
Interpreting poems are important because poems have more meaning if you find the main idea of the poem by interpreting it.
