This is an exercise in making up similes, that is, figures of speech comparing unlike things. For example, you might say, a cup of coffee is like a slap in the face. Or, a cup of coffee is like a cup of sludge. Or, a cup of coffee is like a hello from the donut. And so on. Come up with as many similes as you can for "a drink of cool water is like..."
1,2,3, GO!
A drink of cool water is like ...
- a slap in the face after a long, hot day
- a refreshing foot massage... for your tongue?
- CPR
- an oasis in the middle of an arid desert
- a swift breeze right before a thunderstorm
- ...
- ...
- ...
Does anyone else have any ideas?
Peace.
Stef.
P.S. Sorry for the uber short post. Homework beckons, and I've procrastinated long enough.

~ a shower after a long hot sweaty day.
~ seeing the first flower of spring peeking through the snow.
~ a cool summer rain.
That's all I can think of.
sex in the afternoon
falling into a lazyboy
waking up from a dream
a jolt of reality
a safari in the sea
Am I doing it right?
A cup of coffee is the tongue being fooled by the nose...
A cup of hot coffee is like walking over hot coals...
