What is the relationship between "the thing with feathers" and hope in the poem?

A) Simile

B) Metaphor

C) Alliteration

D) Personification

People don't have feathers so D is not an option. Alliteration is the repetition of the same beginning sound in a group of words so that also is not an option. Simile uses like or as - not an option. Metaphor is a comparison of two different things, hope to a bird (thing with feathers). B is correct.
