It is an example of 3. personification.
Personification is a figure of speech where non-human entities are given human abilities or characteristics. So, flowers usually cannot smile (it is something that humans/animals can do), which is why it is a personification. Carpe Diem is the theme of this poem, but not the correct answer here.

The descriptive language shows that the chain is "Sharp."

An author utilizes descriptive language to paint a picture in the reader's imagination of a character, setting or scene. To elicit the reader's senses, a writer frequently employs metaphorical language.

The climax of the story depicts that Alfonso plans to borrow Ernie's bike, but Ernie says no. It breaks when he takes the chain off of his bike.
