I love this poem. It shows how to communicate an image and a feeling in a
small number of carefully chosen words. Several years ago, in New York
City, there was a wonderful exhibit at the Whitney Museum of Art entitles
"William Carlos Williams and the American Mind". The actually picture that
illustrated this poem was there.
