Similes,metaphors and cliche'


Similes
My golden locks are like the blazing sun.
I am as short like an elf that was smashed with a hammer.
San Francisco is cold and foggy like the freezer when you haven't opened it for a extremely long time.
Metaphors
My sister is the devil in a girls body.
My mom is an angel from heaven.
I am a squawking parrot.
Cliche'
When ever my mom proves me wrong she says ''buttons on your underwear''.
If I give my mom a good Idea she says ''Good thinking olly''
I like to burst my moms bubble.
