Question

What is one purpose of the simile in this poem

Answer 1

Hello there!

There is no poem listed, however, I could help explain how similes are used in poems and also what exactly would be the purpose of using (similes).

$*$ Similes are used to first, they are known to be used as (: like,as). This would signify comparing two things, and making a resemblance of them.

$*$ When they're used as (:like,as), people would use (:like) to compare, as we considered above.

Let's take for example: 

I was so full, I felt (like) I ate a elephant.

He was so tall, he was (as) tall as a building.

These are some examples that can be used in using a (simile).

So, in this poem you didn't post above, try finding these key points in the poem, to help you find the one purpose of the simile in the poem your read.
