Answer:

Alliteration - the occurrence of the same letter or sound at the beginning of adjacent or closely connected words.

Personification - the attribution of a personal nature or human characteristics to something nonhuman, or the representation of an abstract quality in human form.

Metaphor - a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable.
