Back when we were dating, I (Beth) was dabbling in calligraphy, and printed out one of my favorite poems by e.e. cummings. I framed it and gave it to Bill, and it hung in our bedroom for 25 years. We always said that if we got a boat, we would borrow the name from that poem. Here it is:
yes is a pleasant country:
if's wintry
(my lovely?)
let's open the year
let's open the year
both is the very weather
(not either)
my treasure,
when violets appear
love is a deeper season
than reason;
my sweet one
(and april's where we're)
(taken from 100 selected poems by e. e. cummings)
