I can't say it any better

Its a simply stunning Fall day here in Houston. The air is crisp and cool. My dog and bird are frisky and playful this morning (to the extent a bird can be frisky). And the day is full of promise and hope. I don't think I could be in a bad mood if I wanted to be. (Okay I'm tempting fate - or a red ball - on that one but the day is so great I don't care). I'm sitting here trying to put all my thoughts down and I realize the perfect words have already been written. Why improve on perfection?

So with compliments to mr. e.e. cummings, here is what I would have written if I had thought of it first:

65

i thank You God for this most amazing
day:for the leaping greenly spirits of trees
and a true blue 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 birth
day of life and of love and wings:and of the gay
great happening illimitably earth)

how should tasting touching hearing seeing
breathing any - lifted 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)

e.e. cummings


Have an awesome day and I hope you do something that brings joy to your heart. Its that kind of day.
