i carry your heart with me by e e cummings

I am on a mission to find a wedding poem.

i carry your heart with me
By e e cummings

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go,my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)
i fear
no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

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 apart

i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)

    David,

    Thank you so much for the very kind comment. I’m so glad that you enjoy the PotD, and I always appreciate reminders that someone other than me gets something out of it. Thanks also for the wedding poem suggestion. I am looking forward to reading them all this weekend.
