Answer:

Personification. "young dawn" is given human qualities. Dawn can't have fingertips.

If anything that wouldn't have human characteristics, like an object, does in something literature (books, poems, etc.), then it would be personification.

Example: "The curtain danced in the wind," would be personification. Curtains can't dance.
