After Sunrise 2021
Dear Readers, Writers, Friends and Family, I have been wracking my brains for something important, astute, mythical, magical...an all encompassing thought to make us leap into 2021 with relish and joy. Sadly, I was brain dead until I pulled out my favorite book of poems by e.e.cummings. So, here you have it: To our New Year, a poem by my favorite poet,
e.e. cummings that hit me the strongest for the ending of 2020, and the hope for 2021:
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 which 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 of love and wings :and of the day 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)
e.e. cummings
Happy 2021! Let's make it a great year together!! xoxoxo Jayne
