This week let’s do something a little different. I trust you all know the great William Carlos Williams‘ poem The Red Wheelbarrow:
so much depends
upon
a red wheel
barrow
glazed with rain
water
beside the white
chickens
Let’s imitate this poem by stealing the first four words then letting our poetic imagination run wild. Post your dependencies in the comments below.
Hi all,
I’m new here so sharing for the first time. I hope no one minds that two actually flowed out, so I included both.
So much depends
upon
our willingness
to see things as they are
not as we wished
they would be
And…
So much depends
upon
our willingness
to take the first step
trusting that
the wind will push us forward

I like both versions as they each take a different direction.

so much depends
upon staying devoted
to tasks at hand
to stock the wood
for the winter
making sure faucets have mittens
that birds have seeds
all this and more
depends on reliable transportation
good there is a wheel barrow

So much depends
upon
quiet
photosynthesis
in the greenhouse
glazed red with
tomatoes beside
the Mars mission
