Onomatopoeias are words that imitate the sound you hear with the object they refer to. Onomatopeias can help us to write fun poems like this one:
"It went zip when it moved and bop when it stopped,
And whirr when it stood still.
I never knew just what it was and I guess I never will."
(Tom Paxton, "The Marvelous Toy")
