well here we are, almost out of the month in which we observe
may day, (a day traditionally devoted to the celebration of pre-conjugal love and all the pleasures and tribulations that ascribe to that magical state) and i thought of a wondrous
confabulation in which the other worldly qualities of artist marc chagall and writer ee cummings could be brought together in as wondrous a creative confluence as can be imagined or perpetrated in this crazy world.
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 the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apartee cummingsthose are words to sing or dance to!

what a wonderful combination Chagall and ee cummings..Thank you
I am always quoting the 'leaping greenly trees...' and love Chagal.
Oh happy Days
hey delwyn,
well yes, they meld together so nicely! there's something loose and soft and essential about both of them. i love the poem you mentioned as well - in fact ee cummings has been with me for a very long time!!!!
thankyou for visiting.
