Think about an important point you want to make to someone. Maybe you want to tell someone you love them. Or, you need to ask your boss for time off. Perhaps you want to let your neighbors know to quit letting their dog use your lawn for a restroom. Whatever the message, however light or serious the tone, Use at least two examples of figurative language and at least two sound devices

Important point: My room mate has contributed to the mess within the apartment, but has not completed their half of the chores. I want to ask them politely to help out more.

Message: "Hey! I was doing my chores the other day and I noticed you haven't finished yours. I don't mean to bother you, but the apartment's starting to stink like trash (simile) and the dish pile up is a natural disaster waiting to happen (metaphor). Do you think you could handle that soon? Do you think you're too busy and may need more time (repetition/anaphora)? I would do it myself, but I have a lot on my plate and I'd hate to be late (rhyme) to work".

In my answer I used two examples of figurative language (metaphor and simile) and two sound devices (rhyme and repetition). I hope this helps! Please rate my answer according to how useful it was to you :)
