i thank you god for most this amazing day

Hey guys! Sorry it's been so long since I posted. What can I say, a handicapped wiener dog with a tour schedule and costume changes is a really hard act to follow! I hope you are feeling the warmth of spring by now. In OKC, it is blooming and nesting and pollinating with such vigor that I had to go get a stronger allergy prescription. In honor of spring, I just wanted to share my favorite poem by ee cummings:

i thank You God for most this amazing
day: for the leaping greenly spirits of trees
and a blue true dream of sky;and for everything
which is natural which is infinite which is yes

(i who have died am alive again today,
and this is the sun's birthday;this is the birth
day of life and love and wings:and of the gay
great happening illimitably earth)

how should tasting touching hearing seeing
breathing any-lifted from the no
of all nothing-human merely being
doubt unimaginable You?

(now the ears of my ears awake and
now the eyes of my eyes are opened)

To that, I would add: now the heart of my heart, and the soul of my soul are awakened.

Happy Easter & happy Spring!

Layla
