Is it metaphor or personification?
Answered by

That all depends on what you mean by "get across."
"...will never get across <u> (what?) </u> "
"...will never get across <u> (what?) </u> "

It helps (even with a poem) to include the WHOLE sentence!
<i>My apple trees will never get across
And eat the cones under his pines, I tell him.</i>
Now it should be clearer.
If it's comparing two things, it's a megaphor.
If it's giving human characteristics to non-human things, then it's personification.
