Simile or Metaphor ? She is as sweet as candy. My dad is a bear. Bob runs like a deer. The bar of soap was a slippery eel. His smile is big like the ocean. The willows music is like a soprano. Its raining cats and dogs. She slept like a log. His paintbrush was a magic wand in his hand. He is as thin as a rail.

Marshmallow World: It's a marshmallow world in the winter When the snow comes to cover the ground. It's the time for play, it's a whipped cream day I wait for it the whole year 'round. Those are marshmallow clouds being friendly In the arms of the evergreen trees. And the sun is red, like a pumpkin head It's shining so your nose won't freeze. The world is your snowball, see how it grows. That's how it goes whenever it snows. The world is your snowball just for a song Get out and roll it along. It's a yum-yummy world made for sweethearts Take a walk with your favorite girl. It's a sugar date, what if spring is late In winter it's a marshmallow world.

Chocolate Cake, Friends are like chocolate cake, you can never have too many. Chocolate cake is like heaven - always amazing you with each taste or feeling. Chocolate cake is like life with so many different pieces. Chocolate cake is like happiness, you can never get enough of it.

Slide 8

We are the time. We are the famou s We are the time. We are the famous metaphor from Heraclotus the Obscure. We are the water, not the hard diamond, the one that is lost, not the one that stands still. We are the river and we are that greek that looks himself into the river. His reflection changes into the waters of the changing mirror, into the crystal that changes like the fire. We are the vain predetermined river, in his travel to his sea. The shadows have surrounded him. Everything said goodbye to us, everything goes away. Memory does not stamp his own coin. However, there is something that stays however, there is something that bemoans.
