Here's the poem.
The Red Wheelbarrow
so much depends
upon
a red wheel
barrow
glazed with rain
water
beside the white
chickens
The newspaper imitated the poem under a picture of a closed park, because of this pandemic. I would often take a small poem and have students imitate it in their own words. Here are some pictures and my imitations.
The Pink Flamingo
so much depends
upon
a pink plastic
flamingo
hung in winter
trees
beside the grey
houses
The Red Tulips
so much depends
upon
ten red
tulips
accented with yellow
centres
beside the white
snowdrops
The White Mountains
so much depends
upon
white marble
mountains
misted in soft
clouds
beside the small
village
That's it! My poetry contributions for the day, inspired by a picture in the newspaper. We take our muses where we find them. They are not completely accurate imitations. There are too many syllables in some places and the wrong parts of speech here and there. These days there is little discipline.
Have an amazing day.
