A Really Funny Poem

Ode to things
by Pablo Neruda

I have a crazy,
crazy love of things.
I like pliers,
and scissors.
I love
cups,
rings,
and bowls –
not to speak, of course,
of hats.
I love all things,
not just the grandest,
also the infinite-
ly
small –
thimbles,
spurs,
plates,
and flower vases.

I like this poem, because it's really funny.
Pablo Neruda has written an ode about his
love of things that to me is hilarious.
Its a really cute poem of the wonders and glory
that are things! Not only is it funny, but it is
beautifully written as well. Neruda writes his poem
in such a way where, as you read it, you do not trip
over the words and it has a certain rhythmic flow to it.
