How often do you get to read and learn about someone who revolutionised poetry and english and changed it forever! For my poet I chose E.E cummings the reason why I decided to chose him was upon further research and understanding about his growing up and his life really spoke out to me.

He actually volunteered

In the poem Anyone Lived in a Pretty how Town E. E. Cummings plays with jumbled syntax‚ a seemingly random rhyme scheme‚ and the paradox of non-identical repetition to convey his message about the ordinariness of daily life‚ the passing of time‚ and the inclusive anonymity of people we encounter in our lives. Anyone Lived in a Pretty how Town describes the daily lives of the people who live in a certain‚ nameless town. The town is not named and neither are any of the townspeople‚ other than to give

E. Cummings‚ I have unraveled your poem “anyone lived in a pretty how town”. I really enjoyed the uniqueness of the puzzle you created.
