The allegory of the machines working after the nuclear war is that one day humanity is going to be outlasted by its own technology. ]]> 2018-10-04 08:04:03 UTC https://padlet.com/saraalwahedi54/rains/wish/289000200 aroobfatima05 https://padlet.com/saraalwahedi54/rains/wish/289000976 the irony of the story "there will come soft rain" is strong. The poem within the story describes how happy nature will be after mankind had destroyed themselves since all mankind had done to nature is destroy it, but the truth is that nature has been decimated by the war.

The house is personified in the story because it and the electronics in it are described as if they had feelings. It was fully automated though and therefore it does not realize that the people are dead. It continues as if they are alive even though it as personified as fearing that is people are gone. 
Here are some examples:
“Until this day, how well the house had kept its peace. How carefully it had inquired, “Who goes there? What’s the password?” and getting no answer from lonely foxes and whining cats, it had shut up its windows and drawn shades in an old maidenly preoccupation with self-protection which bordered on a mechanical paranoia.”   
“The dog, once huge and fleshy, but now gone to bone and covered with sores, moved in and through the house, tracking mud. Behind it whirred angry mice, angry at having to pick up mud, angry at inconvenience.”
The little robotic mice do not really have emotions. However, Bradbury uses personification to describe them as angry that dog tracked in mud, just like a person might be who had to clean up after it.
