There are three strong examples of personification (giving human traits to objects that aren't alive) in this poem:

"The moon begins her stately ride/Across the summer sky;" is the first example, saying that the moon is 'riding' across the sky

"The happy wavelets lash the shore," is the second, saying the waves are whipping the shore

"The coffers of the air are filled/With offerings from the flowers." is the third example, saying that the flowers are offering their gift of sweet smells to the air.

Answer:

Poem uses personification to bring life to the morning and night to describe with clear detail, what the dawn looks like. 

When the poem says "night woke to blush", it is a specific example of personification (because "night" is a concept and not a living thing, but it is being given the ability to do human things). This creates meaning because it is a fun way to imagine the pink hue to the sky during dawn. 

The personification also develops mood and tone because it makes the reader feel like they're watching an interaction between two living things, not just the transition from night to day .

I hope I can help you Good night :)

If the whole first sentence was bolded then it's an independent clause because it can be by itself. However, none of it's bolded.
