"Onomatopoeia" is a type of poem that uses words to imitate sounds. It often relies on words that sound like the noises they describe, creating a sense of auditory imagery for the reader. This form of poetry can be both playful and imaginative, capturing the essence of various sounds in written form.
The term onomatopoeia is a word that spells out a sound. For example, tick tock mimics the sound of the clock when said aloud.
Examples:
"There was a loud boom, followed by yelling and cursing."
"He was sure that there was a fly buzzing around the room."
"The frog gave a loud croak and jumped into the water with a splash."
"The hum of the engine soon lulled him to sleep."
The sound of the bee goes buzz.
The sound of ball goes bounce bounce bounce.
The sound of duck goes quack quack.

An Onomatopoeia poem can have any number of lines. The key feature of an Onomatopoeia poem is that it uses words that imitate the natural sound they represent, rather than adhering to a specific line count.
Yes, the poem "Woman Work" by Maya Angelou contains onomatopoeia. For example, the poem includes words like "smash," "fling," and "splash" which imitate sounds and add a sensory element to the poem.
Onomatopoeia is a word that sounds like the noise it signifies ie. bang has the the same effect as the sound (loud and harsh).Onomatopoeia can be anywhere in a poem but they are verbs- the sausages sizzledbang went the gun, the mud squelched
Umm which poem? Can you please write out the poem in the comments so we can see?
Alliteration and/or onomatopoeia contribute to the effective reading of a poem.

No, an onomatopoeia poem does not have to rhyme. The main focus of an onomatopoeia poem is to use words that imitate or suggest the sound being described, rather than achieving a rhyme scheme.
No. No "good" poem will have "only" onomatopoeia. Poetry uses a variety of literary devices and techniques. The all-encompassing name for these is poetics.However, some poems are heavily-laden with onomatopoeia. One example might be "The Windhover" by Gerard Manley Hopkins, a sonnet which describes the flight of a falcon. (The poem is not about a falcon, however.) That poem makes use of alliteration, rhythm and onomatopoeia to evoke the beauty of a falcon's flight. Since onomatopoeia has to do with sounds of words helping the reader's imagination to hear the sounds of the action being described, the onomatopoeia in that poem has mostly to do with the sounds of rushing air, wind, and the fluttering of wings and feathers. These sounds are conveyed by words in the poem that use w, s, sh, ch and h sounds.
