Answer:

B). It is better to be part of beauty for a minute then live forever and never be part of beauty.

Step-by-step explanation:

The poem titled 'The Lesson Of the Moth' penned by Don Marquis primarily discusses the tale of a moth who possesses a bizarre habit of being captivated to the bright light.

As per the question, when the fictional moth was attempting to 'break into the light bulb', it is asked for the reason why it was doing so. The speaker or the fictional moth gives a profound reason. He says that 'it is better to be a part of beauty for a minute and 'get burned in the beauty' instead of living forever and never being the part of that beauty.' The poet focuses on the theme of 'significance having a reason to live' instead of living pointlessly. Thus, option B is the correct answer.
