The poetic device used in this statement is a metaphor.  

A metaphor is a literary device that is used to draw a comparison between two things, feelings or aspects.  

A metaphor does not use the words 'as' or 'like' for the comparison. It is a direct statement.

Let us consider these two examples:

1. The road looked like a shiny ribbon.  

2. The road was a shiny ribbon.

The first  sentence is a simile because it contains the word 'like'. The second sentence does not use 'as' or 'like', but is still a comparison. So, it is a metaphor. Similarly, calling the sun a sparkling diamond is an example of a metaphor.
