The snow doesn't give a soft white damn whom it touches.

[come-on-heart-hit-that-beat]

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in

my heart)i am never without it(anywhere

i go you go,my dear;and whatever is done

by only me is your doing,my darling)

i fear

no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want

no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)

and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant

and whatever a sun will always sing 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 grows

higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)

and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)

request for poetry . . .

I particularly love ee cummings

"since feeling is first "might work for your fic?

******

since feeling is first who pays any attention  to the syntax of things will never wholly kiss you;

wholly to be a fool while Spring is in the world

my blood approves, and kisses are a better fate  than wisdom lady i swear by all flowers. Don’t cry —the best gesture of my brain is less than your eyelids’ flutter which says

we are for each other: then laugh, leaning back in my arms for life’s not a paragraph

And death i think is no parenthesis

good god, this is perfect! thank you SO MUCH! Would you be comfortable being tagged in a thank you note when my next chapter goes up?

[thequietabsolute]

i like my body when it is with your  body. It is so quite new a thing.  Muscles better and nerves more.  i like your body. i like what it does,  i like its hows. i like to feel the spine  of your body and its bones, and the trembling  -firm-smooth ness and which i will  again and again and again  kiss, i like kissing this and that of you,  i like, slowly stroking the, shocking fuzz  of your electric fur, and what-is-it comes  over parting flesh . . . . And eyes big love-crumbs,  and possibly i like the thrill of under me you so quite new

e. e. cummings, from Selected Poems 1923 - 1958

...we're a mystery which will never happen again, a miracle which has never happened before...

please, devour me.

Hiroshima, Mon Amour dir. Alain Resnais (1959, France/Japan) / Daniel Horowitz / archbudzar on Instagram. / Kaze no naka no mendori (1948) / e.e. cummings, from “because it’s Spring” (in 73 Poems), Complete Poems: 1904-1962

(i do not know what it is about you that closes

and opens; only something in me understands

the voice of your eyes is deeper than all roses)

nobody, not even the rain, has such small hands

e. e. cummings, from “somewhere i have never travelled, gladly beyond,”

[extollingtheeveryday]

when faces called flowers float out of the ground

and breathing is wishing and wishing is having-

but keeping is downward and doubting and never

-it’s april(yes,april;my darling)it’s spring!

yes the pretty birds frolic as spry as can fly

yes the little fish gambol as glad as can be

(yes the mountains are dancing together)

when every leaf opens without any sound

and wishing is having and having is giving-

but keeping is doting and nothing and nonsense

-alive;we’re alive,dear:it’s(kiss me now)spring!

now the pretty birds hover so she and so he

now the little fish quiver so you and so i

(now the mountains are dancing, the mountains)

when more than was lost has been found has been found

and having is giving and giving is living-

but keeping is darkness and winter and cringing

-it’s spring(all our night becomes day)o,it’s spring!

all the pretty birds dive to the heart of the sky

all the little fish climb through the mind of the sea

(all the mountains are dancing;are dancing)

of a good universe next door; let’s go
