"The water is like the sun."

"The water is like the sun" is an example of simile because water and the sun have little in common, and yet they're being compared to one another. The "is" is also part of what makes this stanza an example of simile.

"The rain falls like the sun,
rising upon the mountains."

Here is another example, comparing falling rain to the rising of the sun. Good similes compare two very different nouns.

SENSES

Sadness is as happy as laughter.
You might cry because it hurts.
You might laugh because it hurts.
But I know one thing,
laughter is laughter and sadness
is sadness.
They can show the
same things like
hurting and gladness.

Hockey

Hockey is like reading
Y ou get into it and then you never
want to stop
Y ou feel like you're in a different world.
Hockey is like school
You have to do your work and
you have to practice or you will get an "F"
Hockey is like math
You get stronger and before you know it
You're getting an
"A"
Your scoring goals
Now that's
Hockey!

Piano

Playing the piano is like
A bird soaring in the
Sky.
When you play the keys it is like
Flying your fingers across the
Piano.
The notes are like
Clouds drifting through the sky.

VELVET

My mind is as brave
as a warrior
of the night.

It's ready to
take on anything
that comes to
it.

It can take
on any dream,
and always follows
Life.
