Personification

Personification is giving human traits to non-living objects.

EXAMPLE:

Dinnertime Chorus

The teapot sang as the water boiled
The ice cubes cackled in their glass
the teacups chattered to one another.
While the chairs were passing gas
The gravy gurgled merrily
As the oil danced in a pan.
Oh my dinnertime chorus
What a lovely, lovely clan!

Significant - Personification makes the poem sounds cool and life like when you read it.
