e.e.cummings

I’m starting this blog with a poem by E.E.Cummings, and even naming it after this poem, for Cummings is one - if not the only - of my favorites poets in English language. I marvel at the way he played with the written words. Reading Cummings reminds me of playing games with letter blocks or Scrambles. His body of work is fascinating, original and playful. So I hope this space will also be. However, I wish to forewarn my visitor: bear in mind that my writing here is an ongoing experiment, and like all work in progress there might be some imperfections along the way, which I will strive to perfect. Meanwhile, I can already anticipate that writing here will be a lot of fun!
