WARNING: MAY NOT BE CORRECT

Comparisons in poems are when you take two very unlike things and compare then. e.g. the tissue is as white as a polar bear. Here are some examples.

The grass is green as a frog.

The ground is brown as a turkey.

The telephone is black as black hair.

The sun is yellow as a pencil.

The grass is green

like a lily pad.

The vegetables are

tasty as candy.

The tiara is shiny

as a king's throne.

The moon is a shiny

silver ribbon.

Wandering lonely is a real thing, it is not surreal or unreal.
