"Hope is the Thing with Feathers"
Dickinson defines hope by comparing it to a bird. Whatever is being said of the bird applies to hope. Throughout the poem, Dickinson describes hope through what the bird does; how it reacts to hardship, where it can be found, and what it asks of itself. I was really able to understand the figurative speech in this poem, and could paint the perfect picture in my mind.
