Hope is the thing with feathers
by Emily Dickinson
"Hope" is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul
And sings the tune without the words
And never stops at all
And sweetest in the Gale is heard
And sore must be the storm -
That could abash the little Bird
That kept so many warm -
I've heard it in the chillest land -
And on the strangest Sea -
Yet, never, in Extremity,
It asked a crumb - of Me.
Which of the following best describes the extended metaphor Dickinson uses in her poem?
A. Dickinson compares hope with music-the tune without the words
B. Dickinson compares hope with a bird-the thing with feathers
C. Dickinson compares hope with a storm
D. Dickinson compares hope with the sea
