From each brave eye shall sprout a tree
fruit that dangles therefrom
the purpled world will dance upon

will lay between their little breasts
My strong fingers beneath the snow
Into strenuous birds shall go
my love walking in the grass
their wings will touch with her face
and all the while shall my heart be
With the bulge and nuzzle of the sea — E. E. Cummings
