My bedroom, a meticulously organised assortment of school books and plants. As the door swings open I see the colour white, splashed across the wall, upon which hangs an assortment of framed comic books featuring wonder woman and Spiderman. Leaned neatly against the wall sits my bedframe, glowing white in the afternoon light. A white bookcase, featuring an endless variety of neatly stacked literature sits adjacent to the bed frame. Plants of aloe vera and succulents of all variety situate upon the white bedside table placed directly beneath the window frame. Snowglobes collected from adventurous endeavours around the world sit neatly upon the window frame coated a glossy white. Walking further in, I see a desk, painted white, shining in the evening light, upon which sits a slate grey microscope, reflecting the evening glow from the window. Beside the microscope lies a space grey laptop, open at the ready. Two steps left upon the grey carpet takes you to yet another white door, which, when opened reveals a closet filled with a variety of black attire from coats to heels, a contrasting comparison to the white accents that encompass my bedroom.
As the entrance swings open and my feet hit the ground, cold sensations begin to spiral around my feet, leaving my body in a constant state of freezing. Skating further across the barren landscape the colour white begins to be perceivable in mystical shapes of all variety. Soft golden light from the evening sun, wafts through the windowpanes, hitting the glowing ice as i draw in a breath of the bitterly cold air.
As i skate further and approach the barrier of the rink,
Snow flowers down from the heavens in delicate flakes that settle gently upon the desolate landscape.

As the sunlight streams through the grimy glass that protects the delicate buds inside, the frost creeps closer to the door. The only indicator of life within the greenhouse is the slow, steady drip of condensation upon the windowpanes. Sliding the entrance open, a gust of warm, humid air, embraces me with open arms. A colourful array of greenery stands before my eyes while the first rays of the morning sun fall slanting across the windowpanes. Delicate buds in all shades of pink varying from deep magenta to rose champagne sit delicately upon the expanse of greenery as warm, yellow rays waft through the windows and hit the petal tips of those ready to grow. Dust modes float, suspended in mid-air.
Metaphor – A direct comparison between two things which allows the reader to gain insight into one via the shared characteristics
“All the world is a stage and all the men and women are merely players”
Extended Metaphor – A comparison between two things which is consistently developed throughout a paragraph or a piece of writing. The development comes from a theme of word choices, all centred around one thing, idea, or object. It is used to specifically project an impression or idea upon the reader, which can be understood by noticing the shared characteristics of the two things being compared.
“Romeo and Juliet’s ship and the sea extended metaphor being compared”
