Flowers through the window
lavender and yellow
changed by white curtains –
Smell of cleanliness –
Sunshine of late afternoon –
On the glass tray
a glass pitcher, the tumbler
turned down, by which
a key is lying – And the
immaculate white bed

William Carlos Williams

1883-09-17 — 1963-03-04 · Rutherford

William Carlos Williams was an American poet, physician, and writer closely associated with the Modernist movement. His poetry is characterized by its focus on everyday American life, colloquial speech, and vivid imagery, often drawing inspiration from the ordinary objects and experiences of his surroundings. Williams championed the idea of a distinctly American poetry, free from European influences, and his work significantly impacted the development of Imagism and later poetic movements.
