what is a simile
A simile is a literary tool or figure of speech used to make a comparison, often for symbolic purposes. A simile differs from a metaphor in that it uses the words "like" or "as" to make the comparison. do you need examples ?
Example would be, "She was as fast as the wind." or "Life is like a box of chocolates." or "The baby was as cute as a kitten." Etc, etc :)
"Love is like the wind, you can't see it but you can feel it." - Nicholas Sparks, A Walk to Remember(one of my favorite writer by the way) "So are you to my thoughts as food to life..." - William Shakespeare, Sonnet 75(my favorite poet,he uses alot of writing forms,i recomend looking up some of his work to learn some more about poems and stuff)
^^great examples as well :)
