Answer

In the poem "Rain on the Roof," the primary figures of speech include personification, hyperbole, alliteration, and visual imagery.

 

Explanation:

Starting with the line "When the humid shadows hover," the poem "Rain on the Roof" immediately conjures up a scene.

In "starry sphere," "push the pillow," and "into busy being start," there is alliteration.

Onomatopoeia can be seen in the terms "patter" and "echo."

The expressions "and a thousand recollections" and "and a thousand dreamy fantasies" are exaggerated. In the poem "Weave their air-threads into woof," personification is apparent. The memories and dreams are given "their" personification.

In "starry spheres," the metaphor is evident because the term denotes planets. "Melancholy darkness" is the observation of the transferred epithet. Darkness has adopted human traits such as melancholy.

 

Metaphor is the solution. Have you ever listened to the patter of soft rain on the roof when the sky is covered in dark clouds and it begins to rain? The clever ideas that sprang to mind while you listened to nature's music will make you feel good and encourage you to dream more about the sky.
