Metaphysical conceit is a concept associated to Metaphysical poets of the XVII century. It´s an intellectual device that sets an analogy between an entity in the physical world and one in the spiritual one. Thus, there´s reference to something inexistent or somehow uncommon, but necessary for the main idea.
In this poem, this rhetorical device can be seen:
-In the first lines “Busy old fool unruly sun, Why dost thou thus, Through windows, and through curtains call on us? Must to thy motions lovers' seasons run?” . Here, the writer directly addresses the Sun, asking him questions and pretending to have a conversation. This is typical of metaphysical poetry, as it is one-way conversation, the Sun can not answer.
-In the line “ Thy beams so reverend and strong”, he is venerating the Sun´s rays making reference to religious aspects, typical of metaphysical poetry.
-In the line “ Must to thy motions lover´s season run?” we see the allusion to philosophical issues, such as Death, Love,etc. The sun marks time and season as we live on Earth.

Hi, you've asked an incomplete question. However, I inferred you are referring to the passage found in the book "Collections Close Reader: Grade 8."
<u>Explanation:</u>
Remember, a <u>simile</u> is a literary device that compares two things that exactly aren't similar or alike as though they were, in other to give a good description.
For a simile about the narrator: one good example is when read;
<em>"</em><em><u>Chatter like a monkey</u></em><em> when I command adult attention."</em> Here the author uses the expression "Chatterlike a monkey" to depict the talkative nature of the narrator when given attention, just as how a monkey makes noise.
For a simile about the mother: one good example is when read;
<em>"She rises </em><em><u>against the sun like a skyscraper,</u></em><em> and when I draw her in my notebook, she takes up the entire page." </em>The mother's bold and courageous nature is compared to the height of a<em><u> skyscraper.</u></em>
