it is at moments after i have dreamed (e.e. cummings)

I found this on a random blog through stumbleupon. It works for me (stumbleupon and the poem).


it is at moments after i have dreamed
of the rare entertainment of your eyes,
when (being fool to fancy) i have deemed

with your peculiar mouth my heart made wise;
at moments when the glassy darkness holds

the genuine apparition of your smile
(it was through tears always)and silence moulds
such strangeness as was mine a little while;

moments when my once more illustrious arms
are filled with fascination, when my breast
wears the intolerant brightness of your charms:

one pierced moment whiter than the rest

turning from the tremendous lie of sleep
i watch the roses of the day grow deep.

- e.e. cummings
