Simile

A simile is like a wide smile
It lets in lots of light
A simile is like your eyes sparkling
bright as moonlight

Or

I am as sad as a man who's lost his mitten
I am as sad as a lost kitten

Or worse still,

I am as sad as a person who has been bitten
by what's been written

A simile is a phrase or sentence that uses the words "like" or "as __ as" to compare something with something else.

A puddle is like a little lake.

Below are some examples of simile poems.

The sky is like a giant blue balloon
I am as angry as a tornado
Tomatoes squish like mud
A window is like a door
I am strong like a steady river
The sun is like a round yellow door

Spaghetti is like crawling pizza
Today is like a herd of buffalo passing
The flowers are as colorful as a jar of jellybeans
I feel as friendly as a dolphin
playing in the waves
