Detailed explanation-1: -To show you are really happy with a metaphor, you could say something like ‘I’m on cloud nine’ or ‘I’m over the moon! ‘ Even if, like most of us, you haven’t been to the moon, you can still use that idiom.
Detailed explanation-2: -A simile says that one thing “is like” or “is as … as” another thing. A metaphor says that one thing “is” another thing. Metaphors do not use the words “like” or “as” in their comparisons. Here are some examples of similes: Life is like a box of chocolates.
