Why do i like the poet?

Billy Collins does not keep things from others and will share with others what he had discovered of himself.That was what the poet Stephen Dunn has said, "We seem to always know where we are in a Billy Collins poem, but not necessarily where he is going. I love to arrive with him at his arrivals. He doesn't hide things from us, as I think lesser poets do. He allows us to overhear, clearly, what he himself has discovered." He has a good thinking mind and allows the reader to understand fully of what he meant about his poems.His poems are able to make the reader have emotions like sad, touched and etc.All of his poems are excellent as each poem is unique in the way that the ending is very surprising and impactful.

Billy Collins was born in New York City in 1941.He is just another above-average guy in New York City. A 60-year-old college professor, soft spoken, bald on top. He's learning to play jazz piano.
