METAPHOR IS QUITE SIMILAR TO POETRY. THE MOTIVATION FOR A METAPHOR IS PRESENTATION OF CELESTIALNESS OF TRUE LIFE, ITS VIRTUES. IT SHOULD BE DONE ELABORATELY, MAINTAINING THE RHYTHM. IT SHOULD BE BEAUTIFIED AND ORNATED BY PECULIAR WORDS, AND AT THE SAME TIME IT SHOULD BALANCE THE THOUGHTS AND PASSIONS. TILL TODAY, I HAVE PENNED DOWN ALMOST 40 METAPHOR. THIS COLLECTION HAS A FEW NOTEWORTHY METAPHORS AMONG THEM. I AM NOT SAYING THAT ALL THESE HAVE BEEN PENNED DOWN VERY WELL OR TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY. MANY A TIMES, THE MAIN IDEA IS VERY ATTRACTIVE AND EASY BUT PENNING IT DOWN SEEMS TO BE VERY DIFFICULT. IT IS LIKE CREATING AN IVORY MINIATURE OF TAJMAHAL. METAPHOR IS A SHORT FORM OF LITERATURE JUST LIKE THE SHORT ESSAYS BUT IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO PRODUCE. METAPHOR IS A VALUED FORM OF LITERATURE. IT ADDS TO THE BEAUTY OF LITERATURE AND REINFORCES IT. I TRULY HOPE THAT THE READERS ENJOY THESE METAPHORS.
