The wind howls in the night.
Stars wink from the night sky.
Books tell the stories of all human knowledge.
The branches reached out under the sunlight.
The old wooden panels shrieked as I stepped onto the porch.

The leaves danced in the autumn winds.
The note unlocked the truth of the mystery.
She swayed along the dancefloor like the rhythmic beat kept by the waves of the ocean.
I feel like I'm doing someone's homework. So, no I will not say more. Personification is giving an inanimate object a lifelike quality by saying it performed some action. By say "leaves danced," its describing the way they swirl around in the wind, but leaves don't physically dance. It's a human characteristic applied to something that does not live.
