This Is Just To Say Ode TO William Carlos William Jr ( I Now Get IT)

This Is Just To Say Ode TO William Carlos William Jr (  I Now Get IT)

This is
Just to
Say
that 
though 
your poem
about
a
Red Wheel Barrow
being
glazed
with rain
water
beside
the white
Chickens,
was initially
mocked
at
by this
writer
in his
youth;

Decades
Later
I get
it

It has to be
said
that
It is kind of
eerie
to come
to the
revelation
that the
one poet
who 
one thought
lacked
talent,
ended up
being
a big influence
in this
writer's
artistic
growth

So Ode
To Williams Carlos William Jr
We commend
you for
the simple
yet complex
imagery
that you
gifted
the world

And

Though the
world
has changed
immensely
since
you left
,
The vision
of one
eating plums
that another
left coveted
in
the ice box
can
be an 
emotion
that most
humans
have
felt.................................

The Lord uses the those who are weak to help the strong 
I find this poem very important in my own writing inspiration 
I don't like to be a copycat at all I rather fancy my own 
combination of faith common sense and poetry nice ode
I find there so many topics a writer poet or poetess can draw from
one can never run out of ideas that's what it's all about

Thanks Angel.  I am inspired by great writers.  At times I implement their work to expand creativity.  SOmetimes to bring out the meaning of their work to the reader.  This is what I was trying to do.
