"Miss Brill"/Simile

"Although it was so brilliantly fine- the blue sky powdered with gold and great spots of light like wine splashed over the Jardins Publiques..."  This is an example of a simile.  The author is comparing the spots of light to wine splashed over the Jardins Publiques.  "Miss Brill" is an interesting story!  She is watching everyone in this park.  However, she starts to think that it is all a play, and everyone is acting.  In my opinion, this is a little crazy.  At the end, something is crying.  I think it is the little child within her, realizing she was grown up and old now.
