The Red Wheelborrow (Reflection)

So much depends upon a red wheelbarrow glazed with rain water beside the white chickens we can understand the poverty of this sentence as it tries to be a poem.
the claim that “so much depends” upon this wheelbarrow is quite accurate. On a farm, a wheelbarrow is used for a number of important farm chores.
notice that each “stanza” is shaped like a wheelbarrow. The colors stand out because of their contrast with one another: the white chickens contrast with the red of the wheelbarrow.
the wheelbarrow can be seen as important economically,
it adds beauty to its surroundings.
much attention has been given to the word "glazed" -it transforms the wheelbarrow into an object of aesthetic contemplation
