A Poem by ee cummings I often recite to Micah

I Carry Your Heart - (I Carry It In My Heart) - by ee cummings

This is one of Micah and my favorite poems - I recite it to him often.

I hope you enjoy it.


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)
