This is my favorite poem. To me, it says everything you can say about
being in love. What brilliant expression of feelings. It makes me want to
be a poet.

To me, this poem is about the Holy Spirit, opening and closing our souls at
Will and for the glory of God.

this poem is for the one i love deeply, for all that he is to me and for
all our possibilities together. the magnitude of emotions expressed in this
poem is the closest thing to describe in words what true and complete love
is. if love is authentic power in our lives, so is surrender to it. we open
and shut very beautifully each time... with love renewed, with hope lifted
and with passions burned. to my little island in the sun..i love you
completely..

i have read this poem about a hundred times and i will read it a thousand
times before i die. ee cummings must be madly, hopelesly in love when he
wrote this.

this one's for you CV whom i love deeply, beyond words,beyond all my
realities, beyond this plane of existence. i am forever yours. and the
magnitude of this very conflicting yet very exulting realization is
certainly joyfully celebrated in this particular poem.

I have adored this poem for many years, as perhaps cummings's most tender
love poem. Evocative in using the simplest of language to convey deep
feeling, it is a rite of passage for me. I sought it out today as I have
found myself in an unhappy leave, and like many great works of art it can
offer a sense of connectedness to a larger world--a reminder that we are
not alone in loving, in surrendering ourselves to strong feeling and thus
to another.

When I first met this poem I thought of it as a beautiful revelation of
love between lovers.
It now so much to me as a poem spoken to a child,my child.
The notion of being "opened" by small hands,speaks so profoundly of the
mystery of motherhood and the vulnerability of that opening.
It speaks gently of the aching love you feel for your child together with
the feeling that the child,in fact,controls you as the sun controls the
opening and closing of a flower.
What a beautiful poem.
