Personification
What is the object being
personified?
What is the meaning of the
personification?
The wind sang her mournful
song through the falling
leaves.
The microwave timer told
me it was time to turn my
TV dinner.
The video camera observed
the whole scene.
The strawberries seemed to
sing, "Eat me first!"
The rain kissed my
cheeks as it fell.
The daffodils nodded their
yellow heads at the
walkers.
The water beckoned
invitingly to the hot
swimmers.
The snow whispered as it
fell to the ground during the
early morning hours.
The china danced on the
shelves during the
earthquake.
The car engine coughed
and sputtered when it
started during the blizzard.
Can you think of your own
example of personification
for leaves falling to the
ground from the tree?
The leaves danced to the ground
The leaves hopped off the tree
The leaves waved goodbye to the
tree
The leaves cried out in pain as they
fell from the tree
How can we use personification in
a poem?
