A pretty girl <br />is like a simile <br />and vice-a-versa <br />so I'd say <br />for like the sunlight it <br />delights our so prosaic day <br /> <br />and life is better for <br />a metaphor <br />when apposite <br />to what you write <br /> <br />the first I used <br />that made some sense <br />came out of childish <br />innocence <br /> <br />before I read <br />the word in prose <br />I thought that what <br />just goes and goes <br /> <br />was 'dire rear' - <br />not too bad <br />as an idea <br />for a nappy-happy lad?<br /><br />Michael Shepherd<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/metaphor-2/
