Alliteration is the use of words that start with the same first letter.
Example #1. Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers
Example #2. Happy holidays for hungry homeless humans has seldom happened. (I made that one up...)
Robert Frost's "The Death of the Hired Man" begins:
Mary sat musing on the lamp-flame at the table
Waiting for Warren. When she heard his step. . . .
Do you get the idea now? I hope I've helped.

The Raven by Edgar Allen Poe.
ONCE upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered WEAK and WEARY,
Over many a QUAINT and CURIOUS volume of forgotten lore,
While I NODDED, NEARLY NAPPING, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
"'Tis some visitor," I muttered, "tapping at my chamber door --
Only this, and nothing more."
There is also CONSONANCE/SIBILANCE:
And the silken sad uncertain rustling of each purple curtain
