Similes:

The house was like a forest. The cat was moved like a cheetah. The food smelled like heaven. The light shined like the sun. The music flowed like an ocean. The rain sounded like a lion’s roar. The fire was like a blanket. The road was like freedom. People are like wild animals. The curtains were like a shield. The concert was like a rally. The clouds covered the sky like a blanket.

  1. I really like the metaphor that the sky is a blanket. It is a really good comparison between the two that I would've never thought of, but it works really well. Just like a blanket covers something, the sky covers the world. Brings a deeper meaning to something we all see everyday. I also liked the simile, "The stars were like freckles." it adds personification in a way to the sky. I liked that you were able to compare human qualities to something like the sky.
