HELP PLEASE!!!

Read the passage.

It sifts from Leaden Sieves---

It powders all the Wood.

Which best analyzes how the metaphor in the passage creates meaning?


(a) The metaphor compares the snow drifting downward to baker's flour as it is sifted; this creates the idea that the snow is falling steadily and evenly.


(b) The metaphor compares the snow to facial powder dusting the world; this creates the idea that each snowstorm offers a fresh new world.


(c) The metaphor compares the snow to leaden sieves; this creates the idea that surviving a snowstorm requires serious preparation.


(d) The metaphor compares the snow to powdered wood; this creates the idea that the powdery snow is falling on top of a layer of thick, frozen ice.
