E. E. Cummings' 'maggie and milly and molly and may' – A Delightful Beach Adventure 🐚

10 <br /> <br />maggie and milly and molly and may <br />went down to the beach(to play one day) <br /> <br />and maggie discovered a shell that sang <br />so sweetly she couldn't remember her troubles,and <br /> <br />milly befriended a stranded star <br />whose rays five languid fingers were; <br /> <br />and molly was chased by a horrible thing <br />which raced sideways while blowing bubbles:and <br /> <br />may came home with a smooth round stone <br />as small as a world and as large as alone. <br /> <br />For whatever we lose(like a you or a me) <br />it's always ourselves we find in the sea<br /><br />E.
