Answer 1

Answer:

The sunflowers.

Explanation:

The poem "Two Sunflowers Move in the Yellow Room" is a short poem of just two stanzas written by Nancy Willard, even though many people credited William Blake to be the author. The poem was written as part of an anthology titled "A Visit to William Blake's Inn".

Personification is when an inanimate thing is given human attributes. It basically is the characterization of non-living things as living beings, with the ability to speak and talk and walk and do things as humans do. And in this poem, the sunflowers are being personified. This is evident in the line "said the sunflowers". The poet characterized the sunflowers as animate characters, with the ability to talk and speak.
