Personification

PERSONIFICATION -  the attribution of a personal nature or character to inanimate objects or abstract notions

 

 

 

For this contest I would like personification.  I am leaving the choice of what up to your own muse but please do not put in your notes what it is you are describing. I want your writes to speak for themselves on this.
 

Should you wish to enter I hope to see your human emotion etched upon that which does not appear to possess feeling.

With my work schedule as it is at the moment, please do not expect a quick judgement but will try and comment all entries before closing.


and yes, prewrites are welcome



Best wishes.......

    Personification is to give a non-living thing human characteristics. It doesn't have to be just human emotion. It can be something as simple as winking.

    For example: The window winked at me.

    Just thought you should know the whole definition before you judged other people's work. Telling them they didn't do personification right.

      Thanks for that input. I agree, with what you state. to give something non living human capabilities. What I asked for, in a round about way...... what I stated was wrong, was giving your own thoughts on the object, I also stated that if I had not made myself clear to google personification.

        and the other thing I would like to state is just because your name is not in the finalists, does not mean that you have done it wrong.......

    I apologize if I sounded rude in my comment. I didn't mean any offense.

      thanks. that's the thing about written words. they can be interpreted in many different ways. especially in cyber space.
