Yes!

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
wich 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 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)

Wow, that's the second time in a week I've heard/seen e.e. cummings being quoted. Very strange.
Also, apropos of nothing, were you aware that I pop to your blog when I feel the need for some calm normality and straight speaking? Just thought you might like to know that your blog is very soothing and very normal. (Yes, it is.) Thanks for that, Sue!
