SOME PARTICULARS
Sometimes some poems make
some particulars seem so particular:
like poinsettias in a poem by John Shea;
like The Fish in a poem by Elizabeth Bishop;
like trampolines in a poem by Denise Levertov;
like “The Red Wheelbarrow” or the plums
that were in the ice box that were so delicious
in a poem by William Carlos Williams;
and then you walk into the kitchen.

That's William Carlos Williams
reciting his poem, "This is Just to Say ...."
