i carry your heart with me by E. E. Cummings

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)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)


1. I decided to read this poem because I thought that the name was really cute and I thought that it was going to be a love poem.

2. The title was the main point of the poem that he or she thinks that their significant other is the way that they live their life, they live it for them and do everything for them because they help them grow into a new person and they will always be together as one.

3. I really don’t know what I would like to learn about I enjoyed poetry and wish I could have been in class everyday to absorb everything.

4. The author used a lot of image in their poem they mentioned on how the heart was like the sun helping a tree grows, which it is also a root of the tree to keep it strong. I think the reader’s tension is on the image that the author is trying to portray.

5. The tone is trying to be more of the love and happy area saying that this person is everything to them and they will always be with them because their heart is always with them and always will.
