yes
simile
Yes. An example is, "The apple is like the starry night sky." A simile has to have the word 'like' in it.
Any comparison that uses like or as is a simile. Otherwise it is a metaphor. Like a giant bird flapping its wings, the airplane flew over the field. Simile. The airplane accelerated down the runway and with a mighty leap the giant bird flew into the sky. Metaphor

To listen like a hawk.
a simile is a comparison to an object, ex: as agile as a cat as angry as a wasp as loud as an elephant he fights like a lion he runs like a cheetah flopping like a fish
a fierce, frightening tiger who will pounce on your prey when provoked.
