A metaphor is a figure of speech in which two dissimilar things are used to make a comparison, but an extended metaphor is a comparison that is continuously being made throughout a written work (more commonly in poetry).
An extended metaphor is a metaphor that is started early in the work, usually at the beginning, but it can be added later, that evolves and stretches itself throughout the passage. For example if you were to write a paper, and use a road as a metaphor for the path of life, and you were to develop and use this metaphor throughout the paper then it would be an extended metaphor.
When a metaphor is continued throughout several lines of poetry, it is called an extended metaphor. It deepens the meaning and creates a more vivid image or comparison for the reader.
