"Anyone lived in a pretty how town..." I had to memorize it for a poetry recitation competition and I still have no idea as to what it means. I would put it down here, but there's not enough space, so you'll have to look it up if you haven't heard it.

It is a love story. Two people -- anyone and no one. The poem is about time passing (many bells down....the repetition of seasons) It is about how we don't matter as individuals in the long run. It discusses how children "forget to remember" as they get older. Anyone and No one fall in love and live their lives and die...and no one remembers who they were...not even enough to remember their names.

Not possible. And, by the way, it's 'e.e.cummings', if you please.
