Question

A Tempest
by Emily Dickinson

An awful tempest mashed the air,
The clouds were gaunt and few;
A black, as of a spectre's cloak,
Hid heaven and earth from view.

The creatures chuckled on the roofs
And whistled in the air,
And shook their fists and gnashed their teeth.
And swung their frenzied hair.

The morning lit, the birds arose;
The monster's faded eyes
Turned slowly to his native coast,
And peace was Paradise!

Answer 1

Explanation:

I think the simile is "A black, as of a spectre's cloak," because they are comparing the sky to a spectres cloak.

And I think the 2 things being compared are night and day? And how one brings in darkness and monsters (night) and how one brings joy and all the birds, humans and animals awaken to a beautiful day (day).

hope this helps!!
