Xαίρε, 1950                                                                                     e.e. cummings
.
this(let’s remember)day died again and
again;whose golden,crimson dooms conceive
   
an oceaning abyss of orange dream
   
larger than sky times earth:a flame beyond
soul immemorially forevering am–
and as collapsing that grey mind by wave
doom disappeared,out of perhaps(who knows?)
   
eternity floated a blossoming
  
(while anyone might slowly count to soon)
rose-did you see her?darling,did you(kiss
me)quickly count to never?you were wrong
   
-then all the way from perfect nowhere came
   
(as easily as we forget something)
livingest the imaginable moon
