Introduction to Personification
In recent pop culture, song lyrics and movie dialogues often use personification to create vivid imagery. For example, in a popular song, the city 'whispers secrets' and the moon 'smiles down' on lovers. These devices bring emotions and settings to life, making the audience feel more connected to the narrative or message.
