simile

Definition: We often use the words as...as and like with similes

Example: His skin was as cold as ice.
                 It felt as hard as rock.
                 She looked as gentle as a lamb.

Significance: Simile is an important pert of poetry because it makes descriptions more emphatic or vivid. it adds like or as.
