Are there Metaphor examples?

Yes, there are many metaphor examples (or examples of metaphors). Reminder: a "metaphor" is a description that uses comparison WITHOUT the words "like" or "as." (When you use "like" or "as," it is a simile.)So, if you were to compare the sound of an annoying person's voice to that of a parrot, here would be that metaphor example:"The professor was a wild parrot, squawking out wild philosophies, his high pitched voice spewing out strange thoughts and ordering lengthy homework assignments."If you were to compare a woman's pale, white face to a blank sheet of paper, here would be the resulting metaphor:"Her face was a sheet of blank white paper, punctuated only by the dots of her eyes and nose, and a thin red line of a mouth."Think of colors, sounds, textures, shapes, and smells when trying to create a fresh metaphor. With a little thought, I'm sure you can come up with some new metaphor examples of your own.


How do you find examples of metaphor?
