In order to continue my journey of being blissfully happy, I am going to post something every Monday that inspires me or makes me happy. It may be a painting, a photograph, a song, a poem, etc. For this first post, I am going to share a poem by E.E. Cummings. Cummings is probably my favorite poet and this is one of my favorite poems:
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 off 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 i possibly i like the thrill
of under me you so quite new
