OUT of NOWHERE...

SPRING is like...by e.e.cummings 1894-1962

Spring is like a perhaps hand

(which comes carefully out of Nowhere)

arranging a window, into which people look
(while people stare arranging and changing placing
carefully there a strange thing

 and a known thing here) and
changing everything carefully
Spring is like a perhaps
Hand in a window
(carefully to and fro moving
New and Old things, 

                     while
                people stare 
                     carefully
               moving a perhaps
          fraction of flower here placing
              an inch of air there) and
         without breaking anything...
Photographs 2026   Spring is like a perhaps hand poem, published in 1923, 
                                     is in the public domain.
