Next, write down the metaphor and simile and come up with some words that rhyme with the last word of each. If you don't want your poem to rhyme, then try to write the metaphor and simile with the same rhythm. Next, begin to write your poem and work the metaphor and simile into the body of the poem.

Is the couch groaned in protest as the heavy man sat on it a simile?
It's not a simile. Similes use "like" or "as," as in, "A smile lit up her face like the morning sun" or "She was as sleazy as the ten dollar dresses she wore." A metaphor does not use the words "like" or "as." A metaphor would be, "Her smile was the morning sun to me; I could not start my day without it." The sentence in question is a type of metaphor called "personification." Personification is when animals or inanimate objects are compared to human beings. In this case, the creaking sound made when the heavy man sits on the couch is compared to a human being making a groaning sound.
