I think that this poem is saying that it is the little things in life that matter. He is giving an example of this by describing a red wheelbarrow sitting in the rain beside some chickens, and NOTHING MORE!!

meh. i understand that many people think this is a brilliant poem. but it seems disappointing that of many modern poems, this would seem to be the epitome of poetic evolution. this is not like cubism, which is actually difficult to draw. these are words a child could write down. art is all about practice, passion, and perfection. i'm not about to call a child's stick figure a work of genius.
