Identify the phrases that use imagery.

It's strange
that all this is still so clear to me, now that the summer has long since fled and time has had its way. A grindstone stands where the bleeding tree stood, just outside the kitchen door, and now if
an oriole sings
in the elm, its song seems to die up in the leaves,
a silvery dust
. The flower garden is prim, the house
a gleaming white
, and the
pale fence
across the yard stands straight and spruce. But sometimes (like right now),
as I sit
in the cool,
green-draped parlor
, the grindstone begins to turn, and time with all its changes is ground away – and
I remember Doodle
.
