Red Wheelbarrow


so much depends
upon

a red wheel
barrow

laden with brown
leaves

beside the white
birches

  1. A friend of mine, a few hours ago, read my copy of Hate That Cat & she looked up & said: "Charming, just charming. Do you remember reading e.e. cummings?"
    Such purity here in this post, for a moment it's like nothing else exists...

    2. Thank you...But, here's the thing: You must have thought my comment daft, or at the very least confusing! Oh, dear.
      My friend had said William Carlos Williams, referring to the mention of the poem, not e.e. cummings..Some gaffe, huh?.Anyway, I do Love That you integrate that poem & others into Hate That Cat..

    3. I associate WCWilliams and eecummings in my mind, so thought you were referring to 'someone like WCW.' ho! But I also have confused the two on occasion. xx

  8. Alas, it seems I am behind on my blog reading. I missed this lovely poem in November but am glad I found it tonight. I will read it with my students tomorrow. They are deep in HTC after reading LTD as well as immersed in WCW & SC inspired poems.
