Book excerpt: Written 75 years ago, Desiderata achieved fame as the anthem of the sixties' hippie-dom - the subject of many millions of posters and handbills - and famously narrated by Les Crane in his 1971 song version of the poem. Over the years Desiderata has provided a kind and gentle philosophy, a refreshing perspective on life's bigger picture. This new presentation of the prose poem will bring it to the attention of a new generation. The origins of Desiderata were, for many years, shrouded in mystery. Once thought to have originated from St. Paul's Church in Baltimore, Maryland in the seventeenth century it was later discovered that American poet Max Ehrmann had written it in 1927. Presented in a refreshingly modern design, Desiderata will appeal to a younger generation looking to find the meaning of life, and to baby-boomers who'll recall Desiderata from their youth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Desiderata, that world-famous poem that begins, 'Go placidly amid the noise and haste', must be one of the best-loved poems in the English language, revered by many as the ideal philosophy of life. Few people realise that it was written in 1927 by the Indiana poet Max Ehrmann who died in 1945 and whose work, until the 1960s, was largely forgotten. This beautiful little book brings together more of the writings of this remarkable man, revealing a love of the world and a concern for its social problems that mark him as one of the greatest spokesmen of the twentieth century. Ehrmann was not afraid to express his thoughts about the evils and scandals he saw around him, and in his quest for contentment he turned to nature and the eternal passage of the seasons: his philosophical thoughts are a search for social truth and peace. Readers will find in his poems much that has relevance today. Through Ehrmann we are led to look again at our twenty-first century values and to turn for truth and reality to the essence of beauty and goodness that lies all around us, if we can but open our eyes to see.

Wilt thou have gold and all the things that can be bought therewith, houses, gardens with great green walls, and the beauties of art?" My desire made no reply. "Shall I go with thee on a long journey--to the far seas of Africa, or to the warm sunshine of Italy, or to the cold north and flit with thee over the crystal snows?" My desire made no reply. "Ah, fame--wouldst thou have fame--the crook of every knee, the nod of every head, the loud acclaim of thee everywhere?" Yet made my desire no answer. "Wouldst thou have love," said I at last, "a woman to hold thee as a god, to look upon thee with spiritual lust, to drain with thee the cup of heaven and the cup of earth, to kiss thee ere thou slumberest, and to wake thee with her lips at dawn?" My desire said, "I desire nothing, and cannot have it, therefore am I miserable." HIS LAST TOAST LET saints declare I shall not dare Or burn in the pits of hell. Let loud men scorn and women mourn Whene'er my tale they tell; I cannot stay in the deadened way Of narrow, hide-bound creeds; I'll win the smile that shall beguile My heart where'er it leads. Away with tears and shrinking fears That breed from the gossip's tongue. I'll live to-day in my own way, Though night shall see me hung, And my good name be dragged to shame And damned for evermore; So here's farewell to them that tell My tale when all is o'er. SUICIDE (Chatterton) THOU God, I'll speak with Thee as if Thou wert, And say this is the last of earth I see. The night is deadly still, and wandering free I soon shall send my...

Each phrase in the poem receives just the right accompanying image: a black Lab resting quietly on the beach illustrates "and remember what peace there may be in silence.” A cute mutt with its face cocked to the side--as if concentrating on a conversation--demonstrates what it means to "listen to others.” A pair consisting of one large and one small doggie reveals the truth that: "For always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.” Every dog lover will be charmed.
