25 July 2026 – Metaphors

1

Using the extract see how many metaphors you can find.

.

The classroom was a zoo of restless whispers, a boiling pot of anxious youth awaiting the trial of the bell. Standing at the front, the teacher was a lighthouse in a fog of confusion, cutting through the haze with a voice of pure iron. Time, a thief in the pocket of the afternoon, slipped away unheeded as the clock on the wall became a glaring eye, watching every reluctant tick. Outside, the playground was a desert of forgotten dreams, swept clean by the howling ghost of the wind. Inside, each student navigated a labyrinth of shifting expectations, their thoughts a tangled skein of wool waiting for a hand to untangle the knots
