Gwendolyn Brooks, Mary Oliver, Lucille Clifton, and Billy Collins are all poets

Gwendolyn Brooks, Mary Oliver, Lucille Clifton, and Billy Collins are all poets whose writing is accessible to readers. Use one poem from one of these writers and use the poem to either refute critics who see accessibility as pejorative (a bad quality in poetry) or to show the value in accessibility (the ability for readers to understand and appreciate their poetry). In other words, would you say the accessibility found in the poetry of Brooks, Oliver, Clifton, and Collins a virtue or a weakness in contemporary art?
