Question:

Which of these sentences are not metaphors? Please help change them?

It's an acrostic poem, and each line must be a metaphor:Moonrise, a harrowing journey upon cloudy seasEvery thought haunted, fear soaking our skin to the boneThen, the Earth awakens from its slumber, summoned by the break of dayA glimmer of light, a beacon of hope, flares up in our chestsPeacefulness envelopes our hearts, yet it is unspoken of in our headsHellfire simmers low and loud beneath us, yet the lake does not ripple, and the wind does not howlObsidian skies, studded with stars, watch over the rolling hillsRoads, ribbons of moonlight under the setting sun, guide the shepherds back homeSweet, blissful tomorrows await, so close your eyes, and sleep the night away

Answer:

When my 4 year old daughter (now 13) set fire to her room. She put a blanket on top of her lamp and then left the room. The lamp was so hot, the blanket went up in flames quick. By the time we had smelled the smoke, her whole room was engulfed in flames We had to spend the Christmas in a hotel room, with no tree or gifts for our 3 kids.
I have one of these also. I have seen the installation and I believe that It could act as a lightning rod, and the ground system that is installed is not capable of diverting all the energy of a lightning strike to ground so there could be considerable damage if this happened. Good question, not something I had thought about until now!
