Question 1
Reread the highlighted stanza. What two things are compared in a
simile?
Rise and Shine!
by Ike Batiste
the sun and a toddler
a toddler and a game
All want is to sleep a bit longer
But the sun pokes its bright head above my sill,
Like an eager toddler who can't wait to play
"Peek-a-bool I see you!
Not yet! Not yet! I'm having the nicest dream!
But sleep, that thief, sees the sun coming
And silently slips out the back door,
Stealing my sweet dream away.
What was I dreaming? It's coming back to me!
But scraps of dream memories drift just out of reach
Like foll leaves dancing in the wind
That I chose madly but cannot catch
a toddler and the person sleeping
the sun and a dream
