the first of all my dreams was of
a lover and his only love,
strolling slowly (mind in mind)
through some green mysterious land
until my second dream begins—
the sky is wild with leaves; which dance
and dancing swoop (and swooping whirl
over a frightened boy and girl)
but that mere fury soon became
silence: in hunger always whom
two tiny selves sleep(doll by doll)
motionless under magical
foreverfully falling snow
And then this dreamer wept:and so
she quickly dreamed a dream of spring
—how you and i are blossoming
~ e e cummings

I Am Not Here taken by Quizz. More of her wondersome images, here.

I just love this poem, and reading it tonight, here by your fire in the slog of winter, it feels even more wonderful. Especially this part:
And then this dreamer wept:and so
she quickly dreamed a dream of spring
—how you and i are blossoming
thank you for this beauty!
the sky is wild with leaves
come on now...genius. sighage. xoxo
this idea of "blossoming"...a resonant chord of late.....I pray it is also a prophetic one....
...my heart aches to bloom...
hmmmm, I think I just wrote a haiku...sort of....maybe I'll post it in a few days....
thanks, as always, for the beauty you share, Relyn...
Ohh, that ee cummings. He certainly knows how to turn a line and talk of love and longing, doesn't he? And that is such a beautiful, dreamy photograph, Relyn.
OMy this picture is exquisite! I just love it!!!
Simply lovely. Thank you for reintroducing me to my old pal, "e.e."
