Signs and poems

Last weekend I was watching The Family Stone and catching up with some online reading when I realized that I was reading a poem that was actually being read in the movie...AT THE SAME TIME. I'm sure it's a sign of some sort, but I haven't figured it out yet. Here's the poem:


i carry your heart with me
by e.e. cummings

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go,my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)
i fear
no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)


Have any ideas as to what this might mean?

(P.S.: Sorry for the super long delay in posting. I've decided I prefer to blog when I can sit outside and write, and now that it's getting cold, that is no longer possible. Sigh.)
