What is a Metaphor? Can you think of an example?

A Metaphor: Establishes a relationship between two things but leaves it up to your imagination to ‘see’ it. Is a direct comparison of two unlike things not using like or as (that is what a simile uses). EXAMPLES:

“ My love is like a red, red rose" is a simile. "You are a tulip" is a metaphor.

“ Death lies on her, like an untimely frost," is a simile. "Death lies on her, an untimely frost," is a metaphor.

“You are my sunshine” IS A ??????
