poem note

Eating poetry

Six stanzas

It basically pointed out the idea that we should not overthink a poem. 

“Their blond legs are like brush.”  Simile

The everyday enchantment of poetry

This poetry uses a lot of metaphor like “tears of the sea fell from the bridge of signs.” 

I think this poem may talk about the music the poet heard in Venice is sad. From the last sentence “heart broken”, I can see the sadness of the poet. Also, it may imply something sad happened in Venice.

I can also see the poet loves the nature, because he said “ thunder” is still like a music.

The red wheelbarrow

3 stanzas

The poem depicts a scene of a red wheel, water and chicken. The poet enjoy the nature. Although it might be normal, it was still attractive for the author.
