Figurative Language in Old Poetry.

Similes + Metaphors + Personification = Figurative Language

Metaphors:

Love is a lemon - either bitter or sweet.

Hate is a blindfold put on by people who lack the courage to love.

Life is like a box of chocolates you never what you’re going to get.

Friendship is a phone, you can survive without it.

Similes:

Community meetings are like going to the doctor, boring.

Passes are like great!

The gym is as big as a boat.

Your house smells as if someone died.

Personification:

The moon winked at me through the clouds above.

The bees played hide and seek with the flowers as they buzzed from one to another.

The phone awakened with a mighty ring.

The car was suffering and was in need of some TLC.

"Fog, Fire and Ice" Paragraph.

The animal in the poem “Fog” is a cat. I think the cat was chosen by the author because its sneaky and stealthy. If I was the author I would have chosen a snake because like the cat its sneaky. Also, I think snakes are probably thee most sneakiest animal. Snakes are just naturally slick because you can hardly hear them, unless its a rattle snake. Another thing is that cats can be sneaky when they want to but snakes are always stealthy. I chose this animal because it fits more with the snake than a cat.

The world is going to end with fire. The world is going to end like this because the NASA scientist say that in 2013 the Earth is going to get hit by a huge asteroid the size of Texas. Also, asteroids are pure fire. If  we were supposed to die in ice then the scientist would already be talking about it. If this does happen, hopefully it doesn't but, I will be a helpless sophomore praying and trying not to die. Honestly, I think that the world isn’t going to end after all.
