Parody (& tribute)

Jan24 by Ann E. Michael

I live in the Northeastern USA. We had a bit of snow.

Here’s my contribution to the storm literature:

Red Wheelbarrow

So much depends
upon

a red wheel
barrow

filled with white
snow

beside the rope
swing
~

Apologies to William Carlos Williams, yet again. 🙂
