The seemingly long word actually has a very simple meaning in it. It is just a term used to describe a set of sound words, like bang, zing, gobble, and so on. These words can actually put a lot of meaning into a poem, emphasising on the intensity of an action, or just describing it, for example, munch sounds like small bites but chomp sounds like someone is taking big bites.
And now with my own poem using onomatopoeia:
Chomping on your beef steak.
Slurping on your pasta.
Crunching on your cookies.
That's what you do, fat pig.
Gulping on your soft drink.
Gobbling on your cake.
Munching on your fries.
That's what you do, fat pig.
You just cannot stop,
Chomping, slurping, munching,
Gulping, gobbling, nibbling,
When is it going to end?
You chomp and crunch on your chips,
And sip and slurp on your soda.
You gulp and gobble on your chicken.
You really eat like a fat pig.
Onomatopoeia in this poem is used to show how much of a big eater the person in the poem is. Through loud eating words like "chomp", "munch" and "gobble", it gives a reader the impression of how loudly, and how heavily, this person eats.
Alliteration is also used in the last stanza.
I'll see you next time with another blog post.
