The 2nd item isn't a sentence.

In English, we'd usually combine both of these into one sentence.

==> The earth is blue like an orange.

The second item is absolutely a sentence, and it is totally fine to keep them separate. Not everyone speaks using perfectly proper grammar all the time.

That's actually the title of a poem.

The literary translation is: The World is Blue as an Orange
