Favorite Poem? Possibly...
in Just-
spring when the world is mud-
luscious the little lame baloonman
whistles far and wee
and eddyandbill come
running from marbles and
piracies and it's
spring
when the world is puddle-wonderful
the queer
old baloonman whistles
far and wee
and bettyandisbel come dancing
from hop-scotch and jump-rope and
it's
spring
and
the
goat-footed
baloonMan whistles
far
and
wee
e.e. cummings

I'm so glad the spacing translated correctly as well!!

That line always makes me smile, and smiling is good!

The world is puddle-wondeful today, even if I can't jump in them because I wore my nice shoes.

I like the word "mud-luscious" even though I don't like mud. I guess I find the combination of the word "mud" (an un-appealing concept) with the word "luscious" (typically describing beauty, I think) an intruiging pairing.
