I've shared this poem before but its been a long time. It is my favorite. It is by ee cummings. May we all be filled with as much awe of what is around us as we await the changes of the seasons. One of the things I love the most about cummings is his freedom to write in a unique way that goes against the grain of standard rules. He makes his point by doing so.
i thank You God for most this amazing
day;for the leaping greenly spirits of trees
and a 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)
