e.e. cummings poems

In Just

in Just-
spring      when the world is mud-
luscious the little lame balloonman

whistles       far       and wee
and eddieandbill come
running from marbles and piracies and it’s
spring

when the world is puddle-wonderful

the queer
old balloonman whistles
far      and      wee
and bettyandisbel come dancing

from hop-scotch and jump-rope and

it’s
spring
and
the
goat-footed
balloonMan       whistles
far
and
wee
