Poem 1: The Red Wheelbarrow
Poem 1: The Red Wheelbarrow I like this poem because it is extremely random to the point that it is funny. It makes me giggle every time I read it. I always wonder what was going through his head when the author wrote it. One aspect I don't like about it though is that it is too hard to understand. For most poems, I could think about them for a while and eventually come up with some sort of deeper meaning or analysis. However, for this poem, I could think about it for days and still be as confused as I was the first time I read it. I'm not sure if it even has a deeper meaning. Maybe Williams was bored one day and decided to write a poem about nothing, just to make people confused everytime they read it. The ambiguity of this poem makes it entertaining to read because it can be interpreted in so many different ways. Some may believe it has a specific and deep meaning, while others (myself included) may believe it has no meaning at all.

I was able to enjoy it and discover the lesson without much work at all. I also like this poem because the message is very strong; go after something you want before it is too late. The author has a huge regret about his life and we, the readers, are able to learn from his mistake. Being a young adult, I still have still have many important events and decisions in front of me. “Nineteen” helps me to realize that if I don't seize an opportunity, it may not come again and I may regret it for the rest of my
