I begin this blog with e.e. cummings’ poem, I thank you. The genesis of this blog is my deep desire to write for social change. Social change comes from appreciating this place, stopping and smelling the roses, from taking the action of loving life.
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)
Hey! e e fan here too! I guess we share of love of this poet, and a blog name as well! AND we are both in LA. Go figure.
