Identify the figurative language used in these stanzas of Amy Lowell's "In Excelsis." Write a paragraph of at least 5 sentences in which you identify at least 3 examples of figurative language in the poem and explain how those examples convey meaning in the poem.

You—you—
Your shadow is sunlight on a plate of silver;
Your footsteps, the seeding-place of lilies;
Your hands moving, a chime of bells across a windless air.
The movement of your hands is the long, golden running of light from a rising sun;
It is the hopping of birds upon a garden-path.
