    Answer: B) It allows for an unexpected ending statement.

    The fact that the entire poem is contained within one short stanza allows the poem to have an unexpected ending statement. This ending would not be possible in a longer poem, as the ending would not come as such a surprise. The other options, however, would be equally effective in a longer poem (humorous, light tone, characterization and lots of detail).
