Poets traditionally use alliteration to make a a constant sound and rhythm mostly used to make a lighter mood. Repetition is used almost everywhere is commercials, song lyrics, and religious chants. Repetition is used by poets to emphasize a feeling or an idea, create rhythm, or develop a sense of urgency. Onomatopoeia is primarily used to describe sounds the author has a hard time describing in more words.

"Finley the flat, floppy fish
Furiously flying through water
Fearlessly following friends
Ferreting for food
Fin flying fast
Fascinating about fish fingers."

"If you have to dry the dishes
(Such an awful, boring chore)
If you have to dry the dishes
('Stead of going to the store)
If you have to dry the dishes
And you dropped one on the floor-
Maybe they won't let you
Dry the dishes anymore."
-Shel Silverstein

Thunk! Woosh!
Brightly colored explosions
sizzle and pop, pop, pop."
