[i carry your heart with me (i carry it in]: 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 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)
“[i carry your heart with me(i carry it in]”

I like the poem in general because of e.e cummings style of writing poetry. e.e cummings is a poet who is famous for his usage of lowercase letters when writing poetry. In general, the poem is well-structured and he uses the same title to begin to the poem as well as to conclude it. The poem made me think about the nature and its surroundings. The root of the root, the bud of the bud, and the sky of the sky are all repetitions in the poem.

Three of my favorite lines are the root of the root, the bud of the bud, and the sky of the sky. The root of the root relates to a tree and the roots beneath the tree must lead to something deep. It sounds like deep refers to something that has a deeper meaning. The buds refer to a flower with something new to come up with. The sky of the sky sounds impossible to think about, but as I know e.e cummings is a poet who creates vivid and creative images for his balance in poetry.
