Yehuda Amichai (born in Germany on May 3, 1924, and died in Jerusalem on September 22, 2000) was undoubtedly the most prominent and equally paramount Israeli poet during the last half century. His major poetic innovation was to part from lofty poetry and replace it with poetry that consists of simplicity when it comes to vocabulary, syntax, meter and rhyme, and rhythm. Simplicity is the name of his poetic game. Yet that simplicity does not eclipse nor cloud the inner sophistication which his poetry cultivates and displays.
