Significance : Onomatopoeia helps to describe a sound that cannot be described by words. It's interesting because each sound could fit in a poem differently depends on assonance or alliteration. Onomatopoeia sometimes could be hard to put in a poem because of the sound it is describing or it could be misunderstood by the readers.
