If another stanza were added to “the caged bird,” which excerpt could best be used to continue the extended metaphor?
the free bird sings
with a joyous song
of the captive life
that kept it safe all along
the caged bird sings
with a fearful trill
of things it craves
outside the sill
the free bird sings
with a fearful trill
of things it craves
outside the sill
the caged bird sings
with a joyous song
of the captive life
that kept it safe all along

The caged bird sings

with a fearful trill

of things it craves

outside the sill

Explanation:

An extended metaphor is a comparison between two different things that continues throughout a series of sentences in a paragraph, or lines in a poem. Along the poem "The Caged Bird," the author Maya Angelou makes reference to the bird's distressed longing for freedom, which is a metaphor for black people's demand for liberty and equality of opportunities.
