Did I label these things with the right figurative language?

We had to pick ten poems and pick out a few examples of figurative language. I was wondering if I labeled the ones I picked out correctly since I have never been good with figurative language. Thanks.

•You can stand there and smile you can sit there and laugh. (Alliteration)

•It was like having salt without pepper

A sun without its moon. (Simile)

•When the world has dealt it's cards. (Personification)

•Life is a train ride. (Metaphor)

•The cars hit the tracks going clink clink clinking (Onomatopeia)
