Poetry

OK, so I've never been much of a poetry fan. That being said, Screaming Mommy (http://screamingmommytoy.blogspot.com/) has posted a poem and B.A. (http://www.blogger.com/profile/13318216 ) commented on it and yada, yada, yada...
So anyway, there is one poem that I came across last year that I really like. I originally heard it quoted in a movie. I was so touched by it that afterwards I had to rush to my computer and look it up. It is a poem by EE Cummings.


i carry your heart with me

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 the 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)
ee cummings

What better description of love can there be than to "carry their heart" in your own?
