Question

The poet says: 
'...in every breeze 
Whispered of summer and dancing leaves.' 
Discuss with your partner how breeze can'whisper' and leaves'dance'.Which figure of speech has been used here? 

This question is from Granny's Tree Climbing by Ruskin Bond.

give answer in 50 to 70 words and I will mark that answer as brainliest

Answer 1

The breeze and leaves are non living things. They cannot perform these humanly actions of whispering and dancing. But in this poem humanly actions are provided to the non living things to emphasize the poem. Such places where non living things are given human actions, the figure of speech used is 'PERSONIFICATION'.
