Thy fingers make early flowers

of all things.

thy hair mostly the hours love:

a smoothness which

sings,saying

(though love be a day)

do not fear,we will go amaying.

thy whitest feet crisply are straying.

Always

thy moist eyes are at kisses playing,

whose strangeness much

says;singing

(though love be a day)

for which girl art thou flowers bringing?

To be thy lips is a sweet thing

and small.

Death,thee i call rich beyond wishing

if this thou catch,

else missing.

(though love be a day

and life be nothing,it shall not stop kissing).

Thy fingers make early flowers, E.E. Cummings
