Final Favorite

My Final favorite poem was "Child Development" by Billy Collins. I choose this one poem above the others because it's silly. It has a child like innocence and humor from childhood. The speaker use words that children use as insults like "Dumb Goopyhead" and "Big Sewerface" that give the poem a lighter happier tone. The poem also delivers an important message that you cant care to much about what others think which is difficult for most people to do. Like children have always known you cant be afraid to express you're feelings.
