Answer:

The line is a metaphor for:

B. A life without dreams.

Explanation:

Let's take a look at the poem:

<em>Hold fast to dreams </em>

<em>For if dreams die </em>

<em>Life is a broken-winged bird </em>

<em>That cannot fly. </em>

<em>  </em>

<em>Hold fast to dreams </em>

<em>For when dreams go </em>

<em>Life is a barren field </em>

<em>Frozen with snow.</em>

<em />

<u>As we can see above, in the first stanza the author compares life to a broken-winged bird after mentioning the death of dreams. What the author means is that a life without dreams is as purposeless as a bird that cannot fly. Dreams are what makes life worth living, what gives us a sense of purpose. Without them, there is no reason to go on.</u>
