Alliteration is the repetition of the same sound or letter at the beginning of each or most of the words in a sentence. The easiest way to use alliteration would be to repeat the starting letter of the words.
For a more complex form of alliteration, you can use the first syllable of the words, using the same sound to make the alliteration effect.
The allure of alliteration allows all authors
To perfect the punch of their poetry and prose
Writers weave their witty, wonderful words into webs;
Sparkling spiderwebs spun by specialised specimens
To tempt, tease and trap their intended targets.
Alliteration is used in poetry to create different effects, either for a reflective description or to create more drama or danger.
