Outside Glories

On a walk yesterday and today, I was reminded of this poem.

I could have shouted it to the sky...


i thank You God for most this amazing
day: for the leaping greenly spirits of trees
and a blue 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 ilimitably 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


...and it would have been perfect.




It was just that kind of day.


I love Utah in the fall.
