L(a by E, E Cummings L(a le af fa ll s) one l iness A leaf falls, loneliness. 抽象理念具象化： 问君能有几多愁，恰似一江春水向东流。 自在飞花轻如梦，无边思雨细如愁。（秦观） 孤（一艾.艾卡明斯 孤 (一 片 树 叶 飘 落） 独 In a Station of the Metro The apparition of these faces in the crowd; Petals on a wet, black bough. 人群中幽然浮现的一张张脸庞， 黝黑的湿树枝上的一片片花瓣。 The “Metro” is the underground railway of Paris.

Pound wrote an account of its composition, which claims that the poem’s form was determined by the experience that inspired it, evolving organically rather than being chosen arbitrarily.

Where cherries grow, which none may buy Ti
