I love ee cummings. I love the fact that he spells his name using all lower case letters. its quirky. Here's one of his poems that I really like. Oh, and yes, I fell for this poem before it was used in "In Her Shoes".
i carry your heart with me
i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my hear)i am never without it( anywhere
i go you go, my dear, and whatever is done
by only me is your doing, my darling)
i fear
no fate(for you are my fate, my sweet) i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world, my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you
here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)
