Respuesta :

A metaphor means you say figure of speech, Like the leaves danced in the trees delighted that spring had finally arrived.

Answer:

The tulips were bright flashes of color like a child's crayon drawing.

Explanation:

A metaphor is a figure of speech that directly refers to one thing in a way that is not literally true, but that explains an idea or helps make a comparison. Metaphors are used for rhetorical effect as well as to provide clarity. In this case, the tulips are being compared to a child's crayon drawing in order to explain what the colors of the tulips looked like.
