A figure of speech is a word or phrase that has a meaning other than the literal meaning.

There are many different types of figures of speech. Two that are closely related are similes and metaphors. A simile is a comparison between two objects using the words 'like,' 'as,' 'seems' or 'appears.' Look at the following example: 'My dog is like a tornado; she dashes through the house, destroying everything she touches.'

The first part contains the simile: the dog is being compared to a tornado. The second part explains the comparison. The dog is like a tornado because she destroys things wherever she goes. The use of the simile gives a better picture of the dog and adds some color to the description.

A metaphor, then, is a comparison between two objects without using the words listed above. Metaphors are usually stated as one object is another object. Look at the following poem by Emily Dickinson:
