Reread the highlighted stanza. What two things are compared in a
simile?
Rise and Shine!
by Ike Batiste
dream memories and fall leaves
summer and fall
All I 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-boo! 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.
chasing and catching
What was I dreaming? It's coming back to me!
But scraps of dream memories drift just out of reach
Like fall leaves dancing in the wind
That I chase madly but cannot catch.
real leaves and dream leaves

like an eager toddler who cant wait to play

and

like fall leaves dancing in the wind

explanation:

now, of course, the quality and the seasonability of these winter dreams varied, but the stuff of them remained.   they persuaded dexter several years later to pass up a business course at the state university—his father, prospering now, would have paid his way—for the precarious advantage of attending an older and more famous university in the east, where he was bothered by his scanty funds. but do not get the impression, because his winter dreams happened to be concerned at first with musings on the rich, that there was anything merely snobbish in the boy. he wanted not association with glittering things and glittering people—he wanted the glittering things themselves. often he reached out for the best without knowing why he wanted it—and sometimes he ran up against the mysterious denials and prohibitions in which life indulges.

there you go thats what we are missing
