Repetition

Repetition- It is when the same word in a poem is repeated.

Example-I'm nobody! Who are you?
            Are you nobody too?
   Then there's a pair of us-don't tell!
              They'd banish us you know

             How dreary to be somebody!
              how public, like a frog.
         To tell your name livelong day
              To an admiring bog!


Signifigance of the term- this is an important part in poetry because it makes the poem sound better and you get a better picture of the main idea of the poem is about because of how many times they've repeated the main word in the poem or the main persons name in the poem.
