According to "Make it New," the type of traditional poetry that most strongly influenced modernist poets was the "haiku." A number of modernist poets were influenced by the poetic form of the haiku. The form of the haiku focus on providing precise and focused images and ideas, with very little direct commentary or observation from the author. A number of Modernist poets, who felt that poetry should exclude the direct view point of the author and provide a sharp and distinct image in words, found this ancient poetic form to be attractive and useful.

Chrysanthemums are the central symbol of life, vital energies, sexuality in the story. Just like Elisa herself, they need nurturing and attendance. She lives a boring and unfulfilled life in a dull, loveless marriage, and she has never had a chance of finding her true self, except in the garden. That is why she commits to gardening so eagerly: because she couldn't bear to see those flowers withered. At the end of the story, she sees her chrysanthemums on the road, thrown away, "a dark speck" as Steinbeck says. They are wasted, just like Elisa's life, love, and happiness.
