| Abstract: This research paper explores the significance of lexical choices in the poetry of Elizabeth Bishop and their impact on the cohesiveness and comprehensibility of her work. The poet's style and language play a crucial role in how readers perceive and evaluate literary pieces, particularly poems. When constructing her poems, Bishop carefully considers how to effectively convey meaning to her readers. The clarity and textual coherence of her poetic texts are essential for facilitating the process of text comprehension. If a poem contains unrelated words and sentences, its meaning may become lost, leading to reader confusion. However, when a poem is well-organized and cohesive, it enhances its overall comprehensibility. This study focuses on examining the lexical choices employed by Bishop and their role in making her poems more cohesive and comprehensive. By analyzing these choices, the researcher aims to determine their importance in shaping the cohesiveness of the poetic text. The study utilizes the framework of Systemic Functional Linguistics to analyze Bishop's lexical choices and their impact on the overall cohesion of her poems. By exploring the relationship between lexical choices and textual coherence, this research contributes to a deeper understanding of Bishop's poetic style and its effects on the reader's interpretation. | ||||
