RM+Life+is+a+broken-winged+bird

The phrase Life is a broken-winged bird in the poem __Dreams__ ,by Langston Hughes has a deeper meaning than what you see before you. He is trying to say hold onto your dreams because if you let them go you will go no where. He is comparing the reader to a broken-winged bird. If the bird can not fly it can not live and is dependant on other people. The broken wing is a symbol of how fragile life is without dreams.

I think you're on to something with the idea that the broken-winged bird represents fragility, something that needs love and attention. Be sure to proofread carefully b/c the first few sentences are confusing.
