alliteration is the repeating of the beginning consonant sounds of words. it depends more on sound than letters, so "crazy cat' would be alliteration and 'crazy chase' would not. there's a famous poem (link below) in which every single line uses only/all alliteration. the first line is all "A"s and the next line "B"s, etc. - all the way to Z. it's called 'the siege of belgrade.' http://www.theotherpages.org/poems/watts02.html lots of poems use alliteration but not all of them. many do not. the same is true of personification. personification is when you assign a human characteristics to something that isn't human. here's a link to a page with a great example of 50 sentences that use personification that show where the personification is in each line. after looking at this, i think you'd be able to figure out, any time, whether a poem had personification in it. http://examples.yourdictionary.com/examples-of-personification.html
