more thinner than recall
more seldom than a wave is wet
more frequent than to fail

it is most mad and moonly
and less it shall unbe
than all the sea which only
is deeper than the sea

love is less always than to win
less never than alive
less bigger than the least begin
less littler than forgive

it is most sane and sunly
and more it cannot die
than all the sky which only
is higher than the sky

any experience,your eyes have their silence:
in your most frail gesture are things which enclose me,
or which i cannot touch because they are too near

your slightest look easily will unclose me
though i have closed myself as fingers,
you open always petal by petal myself as Spring opens
(touching skilfully,mysteriously)her first rose

or if your wish be to close me, i and
my life will shut very beautifully ,suddenly,
as when the heart of this flower imagines
the snow carefully everywhere descending;

nothing which we are to perceive in this world equals
the power of your intense fragility:whose texture
compels me with the color of its countries,
rendering death and forever with each breathing

(i do not know what it is about you that closes
and opens;only something in me understands
the voice of your eyes is deeper than all roses)
nobody,not even the rain,has such small hands

In 1927, Cummings’s parents were involved in a car accident during which his father lost his life and his mother was severely injured. Cummings paid homage to his father in the poem “my father moved through dooms of love”. The death of his father had profound effect on Cummings and this is reflected in his work, the focus of which shifted to deeper aspects of life. The incident is considered the beginning of a new phase in his career as an artist and writer.

He also interrupts some of his sentences and forms completely new thoughts. some say he uses a bit of sarcasm in his poems also. I think he does this so that people who read his poems will have to stop and think about what exactly he is trying to say instead of rushing through the poem and not getting anything out of it.]]> 2018-02-15 16:10:18 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabethjprice/10n3o6gkpy34/wish/231979700 E.

Cummings painted in many different styles such as landscapes, abstracts, and portraits. I like the way he paints his abstract paintings because they are a puzzle just like his poetry.

https://www.enotes.com/topics/traveled-beyond/in-depth#in-depth-style
There are two main types of imagery systems in this poem, which are: human anatomy and nature. The poem’s focus on anatomical imagery is apparent from the second line, when the speaker discusses his beloved’s eyes. These eyes have such a power over the speaker that one look can easily “unclose” him. Likewise, a “frail gesture” made by the woman evokes powerful feelings from the speaker. The poem ends with anatomical imagery, as the speaker discusses “the voice of your eyes” and “small hands” that rival the manipulative powers of nature.]]> 2018-02-19 20:52:47 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabethjprice/10n3o6gkpy34/wish/233056370 Some Info on Cummings nicholas25 https://padlet.com/elizabethjprice/10n3o6gkpy34/wish/233061924 Edward Estlin "E.

The French put him in prison for three months because of his open anti-war opinions, his lack of hatred towards the Germans, and his friendship with William Slater Brown, who was a suspected spy. His time in prison helped him write The Enormous Room, a fictitious account on his time spent there.
