Are u sure
Apologies for the confusion. The phrase "His eyes...were like the mountain sky when rain is pending" is an example of a simile. A simile compares things using "like" or "as," whereas a metaphor suggests that the subject is the same as the other object. In this case, the comparison is being made between the person's eyes and the sky, using "like."
So is it a metaphor or a hyperbole
It is a metaphor. Thank you for pointing that out.
