No. If you're not sure if a comparison is a metaphor or a simile, just check and see if it uses the words "like" or "as". If it does, then it's a simile. This is a simile.

No, the phrase "the breeze blew the branches back and forth" is not a metaphor. Instead, it is a literal description of the movement caused by the wind. Metaphors typically involve a comparison between two unlike things to create a deeper meaning or representation.
Actually, from where I stand, "The wind bit into me" is a personification. "The wind felt like a handful of razor blades" is a simile. "The wind was a shark tearing at my flesh" is a metaphor. But the WIND (noun) BIT (verb) into me", is a personification.

The predicate in "The wind gently blew her hair back from her face" is, "Blew her hair back from her face"
In the phrase "a gentle wind blew across the meadow," the gentle wind can be described using various figurative language techniques. As an asimile, one might say, "the wind was as gentle as a whisper." For a metaphor, one could express it as "the meadow was caressed by the breath of nature." For personification, one might say, "the wind danced softly through the meadow, playfully tousling the grass."
