Onomatowhata?

I sing like the canary

For a literary term

Like a frog I might croak!

There’s so many to learn

One I can scream

is “onomatopoeia”

I cackle to myself,

Sounds like “on a pot I pee – yea”

From the howl of the wolf

To the woof of a dog

To the hisss of the snake

To the oink of the hog

This figure of speech

Can be a wonderful tool

Makes noises jump out

So the words become cool!

It creates an image

And your brain gives it form

So that “screech” that you read

Becomes an owl with real charm
