Apostrophe is a figure of speech in which an author (usually a poet, but sometimes a writer as well), refers to someone who is not present, and talks to them, invokes them, but they cannot respond (as they are not there).

Personification is when non-human entities/objects have human characteristics; metaphor is a symbolical comparison; assonance is when vowels in neighboring words are repeated.
