Personification

elephante

Rain falls and blurs my vision

it smears my colors

it frees the boundaries

I once held dear...

the boundaries that aren't so clear.

Rain falls down from above

and I'm reminded of

her

and her mission.

Personification is used in poetry when the writer assigns human characteristics to non human things.
