That poem by e.e. cummings is a bit lengthy for a bookmark. But “anyone lived in a pretty how town” is a poem worthy of contemplation. It reminds me to move on because nothing much matters anyhow. What has always resonated with me is:
“but only the snow can begin to explain
how children are apt to forget to remember”
A shorter suggestion for a bookmark is “The Road Not Taken” by Robert Frost.
Here is a link to “Ode to Ozymandias” and
a link to “anyone lived in a pretty how town” and
a link to “God Says Yes to Me“.
What is your favorite poem to contemplate?
