Question

Find the use of metaphor in the poem i will cling to your garment

Answer 1

Answer:

A metaphor is a comparison between two things that states one thing is another, in order help explain an idea or show hidden similarities. Unlike a simile that uses "like" or "as" (you shine like the sun!), a metaphor does not use these two words. For example, in a famous line from Romeo and Juliet Romeo proclaims, "Juliet is the sun.

Metaphors are commonly used throughout all types of literature, but rarely to the extent that they are used in poetry. Let's take a look at a few examples of metaphors in poems, which will allow us to see why they lend themselves particularly well to this form of writing.
