-William Carlos Williams (1923)
so much depends
upon
a red wheel
barrow
glazed with rain
water
beside the white
chickens.
[One of the poems that we learnt either in school or college, can't remember exactly. And I have always remembered this one for its meaning...I have never quite figured out what it really means. If anyone understands the usefulness of this poem, let me know. -PP]
Neither trying to shield my ignorance nor any offence to the poet.... but to be honest, it seems to me a puzzle more than a poem.
