Definition: Extended metaphor is when a metaphor is extended in to a stanza or poem. It doesn't compare one thing but many things at once
Example:
School is jail.
Everyone hates it.
Release date is Graduation
Everyone is depressed
School is like a dark deep hole
deep like and ocean
depressed like an ant.
Significance: It is important to use extended metaphor because it is a skill of creating a poem. Also it makes the poem funny to read. It entertains the listener till the end of the poem. Short poems with extended metaphor are enjoying to read.
