The correct answer is metaphor.
A metaphor is a rhetorical figure of speech where two or more things are symbolically compared, without using the words such as like or as (because that would be a simile). This whole poem is symbolical/metaphorical - it talks about the passage of time and how everything is transient and fleeting.

It's metaphor, since "Her early leaf's a flower" saying one thing is another without using the word 'like'. A simile does a similar thing, but it does use the word 'like'. An onomatopoeia is a word that sounds like a sound, and personification is giving a nonhuman thing human attributes.

If you are writing an essay in favor of mandatory neighborhood recycling, which is a counterargument you might anticipate? Munic
vaieri [72.5K]
People should determine for themselves what to throw away.

In my opinion, that argument is always thrown up "we have the right to throw away whatever we want." People are always advocating the freedom of doing whatever they want these days. 

The first counterargument "Municipal landfills are overflowing with trash" would help your cause. It would show people that they're throwing away too much trash.

The last counterargument "Recycling is expensive and causes pollution" is an absurd statement and is not based on any fact.
