A Poem for you! April is National Poetry Month ee cummings

may my heart always be open to little


birds who are the secrets of living

whatever they sing is better than to know

and if [we] should not hear them [we] are old



may my mind stroll about hungry

and fearless and thirsty and supple

and even if it's sunday may i be wrong

for whenever [we] are right [we] are not young



and may myself do nothing usefully

and love yourself so more than truly

there's never been quite such a fool who could fail

pulling all the sky over him with one smile

ee cummings
