A poem for Spring

[earthmarsha]

in just-

by e.e. cummings

in Just- spring       when the world is mud- luscious the little lame balloonman

whistles       far       and wee

and eddieandbill come running from marbles and piracies and it's spring

when the world is puddle-wonderful

the queer old balloonman whistles far       and       wee and bettyandisbel come dancing

from hop-scotch and jump-rope and

it's spring and      the

goat-footed

balloonMan       whistles far and wee
