Are these good metaphors, similes, and personifications

please tell me if these are right

• As the stars dance gracefully across the sky (personification)
• I lay to rest
• It has been a long day and I’m as tired as a tree is tall (simile)
• My heart holds true to this wonderous place (personification)
• The vast sea of trees deepens the farther I go
• Eternal sleep pulls at me relentlessly (personification)
• Gracious beauty or darkest despair awaits
• I hope to find the light in this world of darkness (metaphor)
• The cool touch of death warms my heart (personification)
• I am satisfied with the life I have led
• The cold wind, my guide through this immense maze of mischief (metaphor)

Did you write those?

Welcome to the forum, EnderGalaxyGirl.

Please note my amendments to your capitalisation and punctuation.

Like Tarheel, I want to know if you wrote those examples yourself, or if they're part of a school assignment. If the latter, we don't help with students' homework until their teachers have seen their answers first.

Well, it looks like a school assignment regardless.

Teacher: Class, I want each of you to come up with examples of personification, similes, and metaphors.

Teacher (later): No, Johnny, that's not a metaphor.

;-)

Are you clear on personification?
