there are so many for poetry, and a fair few that can work in prose.
metaphor/simile these help you say something without saying it literally.
many like (sweeter than honey) are cliched. hell is a stinky armpit less so.
kisses like wine is a simile also cliched but it's an example.
alliteration, consonance, assonance, imagery which sometimes uses simile. google poetic devices and check out what you think could be used in prose. Take a look here for a fairly complete list with explanations. i'll get back to the revision in a short while.
