If You Like My Poems Let Them - meaning Summary
Let Poems Be Companions
Cummings asks readers who enjoy his poems to let them move quietly beside a beloved, creating an indirect, mythic admiration. The image of an evening walk and a passing ‘‘princess’’ shows how poetry can alter ordinary perception: it becomes a flattering story told by others rather than an announced claim. The poem favors modesty, enchantment, and the power of suggestion over explicit self-promotion.
