POETRY TERMS: Alliteration ♥

ALLITERATION!





Definition: The repetition of the first sounds in words.

Example:
lazy lions and loafing leopards
lounged in low lying lagoons

lanky legged llamas looked for
little lost lambs

laughing lords loudy laughed
as leprechauns lept over lanterns

Significance: Its important to use alliteration because it can make the boring poem a little bit silly. It can me fun, and entertaining. It's like tongue twisters, and tongue twisters are FUN. I like alliteration because its easy to make, and fun to create.
