I thank God

I thank 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

day of life and of love and of wings:and of the gay

great happening illimitably earth)

how should tasting touching hearing seeing

breathing any - lifting 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)
