Maggie and milly and molly and may by e. e. cu. mmings

maggie and milly and molly and may

went down to the beach (to play one day)

and maggie discovered a shell that sang

so sweetly she couldn't remember her troubles, and

milly befriended a stranded star whose rays five languid fingers were;

and molly was chased by a horrible thing

which raced sideways while blowing bubbles:and

may came home with a smooth round stone as small as a world and as large as alone. For whatever we lose (like a you or a me)

it's always ourselves we find in the sea
