Even though Denny’s tried to correct the problem each time they did not
Countee Cullen uses figurative language such as voice, rhythm, rhyme and irony in order to portray how the happiness of a child changes into disappointment while traveling Baltimore. The line 5, “Now I was eight and very small”, tells that the speaker of the poem is a child of eight years old.
