Similes have like or as. So that's not right.

Well, if time is beckoning to flowers, then those must be some pretty social flowers! Maybe they're constantly checking their flower watches to make sure they don't miss any important appointments. I mean, imagine if they were late for their photosynthesis lessons! That would be a real tragedy. So yeah, I'd say it's a personification.

Answer 6

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

Actually, the correct answer is personification. Personification is a figure of speech in which human qualities or actions are attributed to non-human entities. In this particular line, time is personified as beckoning to the flowers. To determine the correct answer, it is important to analyze the line and identify the intended meaning. In this case, the phrase "time did beckon to the flowers" suggests that time is being given human-like qualities, as if it is calling or summoning the flowers.
