Question

which literary device is used in a flash of Turquoise in the pipal tree​

Answer 1

The literary device used is Imagery.

• The phrase is from the poem The Peacock by Sujata Bhatt.
• The reader's imagination is overwhelmed with the bright, green, and blue image of the peacock when the poet refers to it as a flash of turquoise.
• The bird is portrayed as a visual delight which represents imagery. In reader's imagination, a vivid reflection of turquoise colour, the most dominant in its feathers, produces an image.
