The poem starts with “in Just- the capital J giving emphasis to the word just and the hyphen adding a pause, pointing out that it is JUST spring and that’s why the world is ‘mudluscious.’ Cummings uses new words to create imagery. His new words create an exact picture in our head which could not be created with any real world. How could u describe that something was mudluscious with out saying it was mudluscious?! When the world is mudluscious & puddle wonderful it seems to be only children who take delight in it being so. Cummings encourages us to enjoy and appreciate simple things given to us by nature which children are often more inclined to do. The poem makes reader think back to there own childhood and remember how carefree and fun it was.

However, the ignorant children are unaware of the evil in the world. Cummings introduces the evil balloonman. An underlying tone of something evil and slightly sexual contradicts the innocent children depicted.

and introduces the lame balloonman who is shown to be satyr, a greek god which had a mans body and legs of a goat, also known as a man with strong sexual desires.
