Personification
Personification
The sea applauds the wave
Over her mighty dance moves
The sky stares with amazement
As he winks with lightning sparks
Gently hums the breeze
As trees sing aloud
Grasses give the chorus
Nodding left to right
The sun laughs and cheers
With golden rays of light
Hot! Screams the soil
Calling for the rain
The cloud drums and roars
With heavy thunder claps
Down drives her tears
To hug and fill up holes
Up wakes the moon
With playing happy stars
Twinkling like diamonds
The moon smiles and stares.
