How does Pablo Neruda use imagery in 100 Love Sonnets = Cien Sonetos de Amor?

Isla Negra, a place of natural splendor, remote, and close to the sea, can account for much of the natural imagery in these sonnets, and especially imagery involving the sea.

In Sonnet V, Neruda admits that at the beginning of his relationship with Matilde, he did not know "your night, or your air, or the dawn" but instead her earth, with all its sensual delights, invoking vivid imagery of fruit in clusters or wheat in its fields.
