E. E. Cummings

E. E. Cummings

Lady of Silence

Lady of Silence
from the winsome cage of
thy body
rose
        through the sensible
night
a
quick bird
 
(tenderly upon
the dark’s prodigious face
thy
voice
         scattering perfume-gifted
wings
suddenly escorts
with feet
sun-sheer
 
the smarting beauty of dawn)
