Dena was cooking for her husband Frank. Dena asks “How is the food?” Frank then says, “The food is very good.” But unknown to Dena, Frank’s smile faded and he made a sour face the next time he took a bite. What is the implicit (hidden or deeper) meaning of Frank stating, “The food is very good.”?

(you didn't attach a copy of the poem, but i'm answering as best as i can)

since a simile compares two unlike things using like or as, it kind of gives an item the ability to do something it can't.

example: "the player was like a tiger on the field"

in this sentence, the simile conveys the idea that the player was fast and strong, like a tiger.
