it’s a metaphor, it is comparing autumn leaves and a blanket on the ground without using like or as.

Answer:

Metaphor

Step-by-step explanation:

Similes have like or as to link the comparison. Personifications compare a non-human thing to a person by giving the former human qualities. Metaphors are like similes but they don't have like or as. Instead, the comparison is implicit.
