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.

What is the theme for the short film “do geese see god” created by Amazon Theater
zysi [14]

Answer:

The film is a metaphor for "the rat race." Get it? That's why the rat imagery appears throughout the film. All over the film. The film is a rant against the rat race. The lesson, therefore, is the more obvious "hey, we need to stop and 'smell the roses.'" I found the film enjoyable, and I accepted the recurring scenes as they were intended: without them, you'd have no film. So I simply didn't let the repetition get to me. I looked for inconsistencies in the images as I watched them again and again; that is, I looked for changes during the recurring events. (No, I didn't see any.) But, again, the rat race metaphor is really very clever, and I didn't understand the rat metaphor (assuming I'm correct) until the film started its second cycle. I did not find the "product placements" to be intrusive -- which I'm sure is what the film makers intended.

You are Meera/ Mohan,a Human Rights campaigner. Write a letter to the Editor of a local daily, pointing out ways and suggestions
xz_007 [3.2K]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The letter would be this one.

Dear...

Senior Editor.

Local News

Present

Dear Sir,

What we are witnessing is intolerable.

Racism is a virus that is "eating or society." How much longer are we need to tolerate these incidents to do some big that put a stop on these sad events?

Respectfully, I invite your news company to fully commit to the promotion of a social campaign that shares or voices and makes people think about the issue of race.

Consider the following.

-Support black and minority organizations. It could be money, it could be voluntary time to spread the peace message.

-Do not spread lies or partial truths. Research alternative versions of reality.

-Include the voice of minority leaders. They experience on the issue of racism.

-Be independent and never accept the pressure of supremacists or extremist groups.

If you include all the voices with objectivity, people will have the capacity to construct their own conclusions.

Thank you for your help.

Regards,

Meera.
