The only alliteration that can be found in this poem is in verse 4 when Frost writes “favor fire.” In verses 1 and 2, he writes “some say” which can also be considered an alliteration.

I previously believed it was as simple as writing your thoughts or feelings down and incorporating the use of rhyme and pattern. The fact is, that like with any other form of writing, there are a set of rules to follow in order to create a successful work.
