This little boy has an innate understanding of the freedom and joy associated with letting your id roam free to do as it pleases.

The tiger is your unconscious knowledge of what makes you free (the likes of which usually isn't simple and obvious without heavy drug/alcohol use) and freeing it is, obviously, letting lose the destructive, terrifying, and primal nature of each and every creature living on this earth.

The youth can recognize it and celebrate it because they are only partially socialized in the same fashion as fully grown adults. They can see clearly the emotions that drive us as men.

The child is free, and he knows what it means to be free.

So the poem is about freeing your animalistic side/ inhibitions?

Maybe he wants to be free and has overbearing parents?
