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 sizzled
bang went the gun, the mud squelched
No, there is no onomatopoeia in this poem.

Yes, "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner" by Samuel Taylor Coleridge contains instances of onomatopoeia, such as "splash," "whizzed," and "clack." These words imitate the sounds they describe, enhancing the vividness of the poem's imagery and contributing to its overall effect.
Umm which poem? Can you please write out the poem in the comments so we can see?
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.
Alliteration and/or onomatopoeia contribute to the effective reading of a poem.
It had both :)
yes
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.
Onomatopoeia has the effect of emphasis. Words will tell what is happening and what the imagery is, but onomatopoeia helps a reader or listener to "enter" the poem more completely in the imagination, by helping the reader to "hear" the sounds that would be present. In other words, onomatopoeia has the effect of enhancing the reader or listener's imagination. This is generally true whether the onomatopoeia is recognized or not.
