No ideas but in things...

"No ideas but in Things." William Carlos Williams
Part of my course is to write a  So Much Depends Upon Poem after the style of Williams!!
Here goes from an earlier short story of mine.

So Much depends Upon A Real Umbrella

So much depends
Upon

An umbrella
with a pointed
ferrule

A long
shaft and twelve
stretchers.

A real
umbrella
An older

Man
Sure
to know.

The bird
From my cupped
Hands

Its beak
No longer frozen
in fright

Must have felt it
and took flight
