The extended metaphor is life can be related to someone that sells people something, and that life sells beauty. I can conclude this because in the poem, many things which are considered beautiful are up for sale.

  • the ocean's waves
  • fire (warmth and comfort)
  • children's faces (innocence, happiness, wonder)
  • pine trees scents
  • love (agape, eros, philia, etc.)
  • "holy thoughts."

Hope this helps. HAVE A BLESSED AND WONDERFUL DAY! As well as a great rest of Black History Month! :-)
