There is a climax in the third line of each stanza that draws attention to itself by giving the reader the poem's vivid imagery ("broken-winged bird" and "barren field"); and a final line that could, by itself, leave the reader with a bleak view of the world if the poem did not twice offer the solution to that bleakness: "Hold fast to dreams."
