Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poems of Friendship, Love, and Hope The Author of this book was born about three miles southwest of Delta, Fulton County, Ohio, on February 4th, 1854. He grew up on a farm and was educated in a country school, Wauseon High and Elkhart, Indiana. He began teaching at 18. In the spring of 1877 was admitted to practice law at Goshen, Indiana. He was married on Octo her first, 1880, to Ella Frances Grumman, at Berlin ville, Erie County, Ohio. He has a family of three sons and two daughters. He is now engaged in the law and real estate, together with his son, Kenneth, at Lorain, Ohio, where all communications will reach him; and now, I take up the beginning of the end. In 1876, I was to publish a volume of poems; all I lacked was the means, and I have been fighting in the industrial world ever since. Have I won? Well, yes! And now I am going to the press. After taking up and dropping a name at each decade, I will call it Poems of F rienship, Love and Hope for what else of this earth interests me? Let me be a monarch of Love and thou mayest rule all else. My object is to build up and better Humanity. I go before the Public of my own free will and accord, whether for praise or condemnation, you will find me still writing. I come at eventide but salute you by saying, Good morning, here I am. N ow I really hope you will be pleased for Where do I get my cost if I fail to get praise? All else I was forced to get before I went to press. From my earliest mem ory, I liked things sweet and would I be an Author if I did not like praise? I always wanted my butter spread thickly and Whether condemnation or praise, do not be afraid to spread it on and I will greet bothwith a smile. Mr. Critic, wade in, I love a fracas; if you will fight, we will postpone dinner and put on the gloves; but for all who praise, God be with you.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poems of Friendship, Life, Home, Love, Religion, Humor and Other Poems The Lake Sequoia In a setting of pines and cedars, The lake Sequoia lies; And in its depths reflected, Shine forth the azure skies. Wrapped in this beauteous setting, Who could, unmoved, behold The rare and splendid beauty, By poets pen untold. And when the night advances, And the moon above the pines Shines forth upon the water, The setting then combines To entrance and holds the looker Who Nature's works admire; They can gaze and gaze in wonder, Gathered 'round the old camp fire. The beauties of stream and forest; The falls, Sequoia, near; All tell of a splendid Sculptor, A Sculptor without peer. The mountains are the handiwork, As also the setting grand; But lake Sequoia cannot claim This Sculptor's mighty hand.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gift of Friendship, and Other Verses HE greatest blessing that one can give another as he travels through life is the gift of friend ship to those whom he has learned to love.

And the man who has both given and received this blessing is rich indeed.

Download or read book The Shortest Day written by Susan Cooper and published by Candlewick. This book was released on 2019-10-22 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this seasonal treasure, Newbery Medalist Susan Cooper’s beloved poem heralds the winter solstice, illuminated by Caldecott Honoree Carson Ellis’s strikingly resonant illustrations. So the shortest day came, and the year died . . . As the sun set on the shortest day of the year, early people would gather to prepare for the long night ahead. They built fires and lit candles. They played music, bringing their own light to the darkness, while wondering if the sun would ever rise again. Written for a theatrical production that has become a ritual in itself, Susan Cooper’s poem "The Shortest Day" captures the magic behind the returning of the light, the yearning for traditions that connect us with generations that have gone before — and the hope for peace that we carry into the future. Richly illustrated by Carson Ellis with a universality that spans the centuries, this beautiful book evokes the joy and community found in the ongoing mystery of life when we celebrate light, thankfulness, and festivity at a time of rebirth. Welcome Yule!
