Text by ee cummings

i thank You God for most this amazing

day: for the leaping greenly spirits of trees

and blue true dream of sky; and for everything

which is natural which is infinite which is yes


(i who have died am alive again today,

and this is the sun's birthday; this is the birth

day of life and of love and wings: and of the gay

great happening illimitably earth)


how should tasting touching hearing seeing

breathing any - lifted from the no

of all nothing - human merely being doubt unimaginable You?


(now the ears of my ears awake and

now the eyes of my eyes are opened)
