How a song or poem sounds is really important to whoever is reading it. In Imagine, John Lennon uses similies, metaphors, rhythm and repetition. One of the ways he uses repetition is that he is constantly reiterating the word "Imagine", and he has a chorus that repeats over twice. John Lennon also uses similies, such as "And the world will live as one".
Using the power of words, John Lennon is easily able to paint a picture in my mind about how he feels the world should be. One of the lines that he says is "Imagine all the people sharing all the world", which creates a picture in my mind of peace and people looking after each other. Also, John Lennon's song Imagine appeals to my hearing as well. In the line "Imagine all the people living life in peace", it appeals to hearing because if everything is peaceful, then it is quiet and serene and there's no more yelling or screaming in the streets.
The song Imagine also allows me to see things in a new perspective. Everyday on the news you hear about people being killed and nothing really seems to be done about it. With John Lennon's song Imagine, it is somewhat inspirational because it pretty much says that people who come together can make a difference if they really strive for it.
