Yes because a metaphor is an exaggeration and if someone says you have the memory of an elephant is exagerating that someone has a very good memory,

CORRECT ANSWER:

No, an elephant's memory is not a metaphor.

While is it true that man's brain is larger, it's only in relation to size of man. In other words, a man's brain is larger when compared the size of the man, than an elephant's is compared to the size of the elephant.

Relative size aside, elephants have the largest brain of any animal.

An elephant's brain is denser, which means it has more cells and brain matter. Memory is found in the brain's temporal lobes. Elephant temporal lobes are more developed than humans and they have more folds and crevices for holding more information. Consequently, elephants have the best memories of any living creature.

Elephants' memories are legendary. They remember everything over the course of their long lives.

So, when someone says you have the memory of an elephant, they are giving you a huge compliment. Because no one has a memory that is as fantastic as an elephant's, and that's no exaggeration!

Probably the most famous example of personification in poetry

is the Mother Goose Nursery Rhyme .

Hey diddle, diddle

The cat and the fiddle

The cow jumped over the moon

The little dog laughed to see such fun

And the dish ran away with the spoon!

Personification is when a human quality is transposed

onto an animal or inanimate subject:

'dog laughed'....'dish ran away with the spoon'

In Wiliiam Blake's 'The Train' he makes

great use of personification.. the first stanza;

I like to see it lap the miles

And lick the valleys up

And stop to feed itself at tanks

And then, prodigious, step

allusion is indirectly and reader should realize the difference by themselves.

in metaphor the writer make the first object and second object kind of the equal thing and will tell the reader what is the point that make them the same thing.

I know this isn't what you're asking, but in a sense, how is it possible NOT to use metaphors? All language is metaphor. More to your question, figures of speech create images that bring the writer's idea to life, and if the writing is good, they provide a musical sound track as well. But what is a metaphor for?

A common simile for quiet is "as quiet as a mouse."
