This is very simplistic and not a complete definition by any meas but

A metaphor can be
"a figure of speech in which a term or phrase is applied to something to which it is not literally applicable in order to suggest a resemblance, as in “A mighty fortress is our God.” Compare."
think "snakes in my stomach" "lightning in my veins" "his unshaven face was sandpaper against my porcelain skin"

An easy way to get a metaphor is to write a simile and take out the "like"

A simile would be "my wife's hands were like porcelain"
A metaphor would be "my wife's hands were porcelain," or "my wife's porcelain hands"

So make a simile by saying something is "like" something else,
Make a metaphor by removing the "like"; so the "something" is "something" else.

As far as personification goes: you might want to give something human qualities.
Example "the apple tree stared at me when I walked past"
"The candy was eyeing and pleading with me to break my diet."
I hope this helps.
good luck

Yeah, so? What's your point here? You don't honestly expect us to write it for you or give you 1 of ours, do you? Ya know life won't get any easier, so don't you think it would be best to prepare for what's coming by handling what's here now?

Remember, "Experience is a hard teacher because she give the test first, the lesson later." Learn now.

If you do come up with an idea try using spell check and maybe cut your nails a little so you can type one letter at a time.
