The first time I heard EE Cumming's poem I Carry Your Heart, I knew it was a poem that I would always remember. Although it is a love poem, I think it can apply to anyone you care about. Always keep them in your heart.

I Carry Your Heart

~ 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 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)

This poem is printed on an old dictionary page that gives it a vintage feel. Tulips, being a favorite flower of mine, join together laying on the page. Two favorites in one image.
