this is the birthday of life

Align Centeri 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 love
and wings:
and of
the gay
, 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
