My teammates and I have a habit of writing our own William Carlos William poems for pretty much any situation – a messy room, a celebration of good work, a vacation weekend or a boring staff meeting. It has been our go-to for expressing things when we don’t know what else to say. 14 years ago on April 8th, we adopted our dear sweet Chaco. And last week on April 7th, we said goodbye.
So much depends

My heart breaks for you! I lost my sweet dog this past summer and still miss her everyday. I sliced about her a few times. They are family! Sorry for your loss!

I love your interpretation of the William Carlos Williams poem, even while it made me sad for you, having lost your dog friend. I’m sorry for your loss.
I want to try writing a Williams poem for a messy room and DEFINITELY for a boring staff meeting.
