“Your words are bees about a pear-tree" is an example of a metaphor.

A metaphor is the use of a word or phrase to refer to something that it is not, invoking a direct similarity between the word or phrase used and the thing described, without the use of the words “like” or “as’’. Metaphor is very expressive and it states that something is something else. To find the meaning in a metaphor, it requires much understanding. “Your words are bees about a pear-tree" is an example of a metaphor. From this example, words are referred to bees about a pear-tree. Words and bees are not alike but do have something in common.
