The literary device used in the poem is Personification. The effect of personification is that it gives trees and palms human-like character and bring human life to them.

- Personification is that figure of speech that renders non-human character human form by way of comparison. Therefore, non-human characters are given a humanistic form which helps the readers understand the character better and even sometimes empathize with them.
- In Personification human qualities and features are given to non-human entities which eventually allow them to compare their different feature and character. This subsequently allows them to be understood better by the readers and the audience at large.
- Personification is the most common literary device which is used by writers and poets, in particular, to express their ideas and visions better and more specifically.
All together there are about ten literary devices which are also called figures of speech of which personification stands out to be the most important one.

The palms beyond them were still as if awaiting something", the poet had tried to personify trees with the human that moved very hesitantly while the palms were unmoved.

I spent so long just crying, because after the panic passed, i realised I was going to fail if i didn't do the presentation and I really didn't want to fail. Over the next week I spent time with my history teacher who slowly helped me practice, starting with presenting in front of a mirror in an empty bathroom, then in front of an empty classroom, then in front of him and the finally in front of the entire class. It went fine and I got an A! I just wished I'd have practiced earlier to avoid all this embarrassment.
