poetry Wednesday: short but sweet?

The Red Wheelbarrow

so much depends
upon

a red wheel
barrow

glazed with rain
water

beside the white
chickens.

-William Carlos Williams

What do you think of this poem? 
I thought it was interesting.

In some ways it's a bit silly
almost like a cheap trick or joke,

but then again,
isn't there something beautiful
about something as simple as
a red wheel barrow?
