"He was like a wingspan who thought the sun had risen to hear him crow." Is this a metaphor?

Question

anonymous · Answer

i would say it is a simile since because it is a comparison using "like"

anonymous · Answer

It's a simile, but I'm not sure what you mean by wingspan.  After 'wingspan,' you wrote 'who.'  This makes me think of a living thing.  A wingspan is not a living thing.  Maybe you should reword the sentence?
