dylan has written many enduring songs and he has received several awards for his musical achievement;  

any written work with artistic value can be considered literature; especially if such work is publicly recognized, and has had importance and endurance among people; whether is poetry or fiction or drama or even criticism, since it's the transcendence and representation of a culture, language or people in a period of time to more people, using letters (words), regardless the subject.

the nobel prize in literature is given to authors from any country based on a body of work as a whole that inspires and nurses the life of humanity.  

and the work of bob dylan matches that description, therefore is well deserved since he'd created new poetic expressions within the american song tradition, that has inspired and influenced the lives of many people, not only withing the united stated but worldwide as well.

the speaker is distressed about his fate, but when he thinks of his love, his condition improves.

the condition improving is then compared in a simile:

his mood improves and gets better "like to the lark at break of day " like a lark rising into the skies. the simile is comparing his mood to a lark soaring.

there's also examples of personification, sullen is an adjective that describes a human characteristic. once the poet establishes the simile, he extends the speaker's "mood" sings.  

hyperbole is exemplified by the idea of his mood improving enough to reach heaven's gate.

hope this !
