EE Cummings Moves My Soul

Oh, I love this! Thank's Kelly! Just beautiful….

My hands are moving by themselves… please pardon me for vandalizing EE Cummings' beautiful poem & your wonerful blog…

Carry my tears with you (carry it in
your heart) never be without it (anywhere
you go i go, my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing, my darling)

i fear
no tears (for you are my tears, my sweat) i want
no words (for beautiful no words can describe you, my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always wept
and whatever a sun will always dry is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;
which feed on my tears & grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars in your eyes

i carry your tears (i carry it in my eyes,
so that your eyes may always be without them)

Thanks, I needed this today, you always deliver intuitivly, what my soul needs and my brain denies…thanks for that,
Much Love,
Heather

I love this poem.

Synchronicity abounds!  I was watching the movie, “In Her Shoes”, and one of the sisters recites this potem to the other at her wedding.  Although I've read the poem, I've never heard it read - and it moved me completely.  And, now I have it in writing to remind me of its beauty.  Thanks, Kelly!

Michael Hedges made a very nice song of this on Taproot
