I am hungry as a horse.

                                                       

You run like a rabbit.

                                                                                                                                           

He is sneaky as a snake.

She is happy as a clam.

Famous simile poem:

• “Twinkle, twinkle little star,• How I wonder what you are• Up above the world so high,• Like a diamond in the sky.”

• -> how do you know that this is a simile?

Greater Than That(can you spot the similes?)

“Peering through the drapeOf my synthetic cell,How I long to escapeThis manufactured hell.Like a bruised, little birdToo confused to fly, I’m trapped, in a word,So confined am I.A captive, collared lionAlone in its pen,

I’m pacin’ and dyin’In a manmade den.For an eagle was not meantTo be locked in a cage,Its life to be spentLike a picture on a page.And when a mighty lion,In truth, is but a cat,It will spend its time tryin’To be greater than that.”
