Read the passage from “The Caged Bird.”

A free bird leaps
on the back of the wind
and floats downstream
till the current ends
and dips his wing
in the orange sun rays
and dares to claim the sky.

How does the figurative language in this stanza work as part of the extended metaphor?

It creates images of freedom.
It creates images of oppression.
It emphasizes a sense of fantasy.
It emphasizes a sense of arrogance.
