I'm assuming that the answer is blanket because fog is often said to "cover the land like a blanket". May I ask what poem you are referring to? This would aid in answering the question. <span />

Hey there!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<h3>Alliteration:</h3>

Definition - Repetitive or identical consonant sounds.

"Nobody, but nobody" - The "n" (consonant), gives emphasis on how negative and empty the word is.

"Now if you listen closely" - The "s" (consonant), is repeated.

"Where water is not thirsty" - The "w" (consonant), is repeated.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<h3>Assonance:</h3>

<h3>Metonymy:</h3>

Definition - It is figurative language that no one really knows about. It means that the name of something is referred to the name of something that is closely related with that concept or thing.

"How to find my soul a home" - The home the author is referring to is not a physical place but a spiritual place. In other words, the speaker wants to be part of a group that is connected spiritually and religiously. The speaker wants to find her soul some peace and the solidarity human beings receive is the kind of home she is looking for (a world that comes together peacefully).
