What are the metaphors in the poem "your world"

POEM:

Your world is as big as you make it

I know, for I used to abide

In the narrowest nest in a corner

My wings pressing close to my side.

But I sighted the distant horizon

Where the sky-line encircled the sea

And I throbbed with a burning desire

To travel this immensity.

I battered the cordons[1]

And cradled my wings on the breeze

Then soared to the uttermost reaches

With rapture, with power, with ease!
