Happy Birthday Elizabeth!

. . . 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 the 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)

an excerpt. e.e. cummings

Happy Birthday dear sister, happy birthday to you.
