who spoke this earth so glad and
big
even a thing all small and sad
man,may his mighty briefness dig
for love beginning means return
seas who could sing so deep and
strong
one queerying wave will whitely
yeam
from each last shore and home come
young
so truly perfectly the skies
by merciful love whispered were,
completes its brightness with your
eyes
any illimitable star
| This poem refers to the way love can equalize all. Love is the one thing that disregards size, quantity, or quality. "completes its brightness with your eyes / any illimitable star" All you need to do to find love is look. This reflects Cummings's romantic style. He seems to have a love for life that goes beyond just people and who they are. He loves life for the sake that it exists. |
