Woods in Winter by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
S5 E3 Woods in Winter by Henry Wadsworth LongfellowReading poetry in the winter offers a unique comfort, as the cold, often bleak environment outside contrasts with the warmth and intimacy found in verse. The act of curling up with a collection of poems allows one to escape into a world of emotion and reflection, where the themes of solitude and introspection resonate deeply during the darker months. The rhythmic flow of words can evoke a sense of nostalgia and peace, making the experience of reading poetry a soothing ritual that provides solace against the chill of...

A Psalm of life | Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
The poem was written by the American Poet and educator Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. One of his famous poems are “Paul Revere’s Ride” and “The Song of Hiawatha”. In his poem “A Psalm of life”, he urges people to think & act in the living present, and to get rid of depressed & melancholic thoughts about the unknown future and the buried past. He praises the eternal soul which does not slumbers, and he distinguishes it from the transient flesh which is made of dust (or clay) and becomes dust after death.

The Ladder of St Augustine by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow | Read by Simerjeet Singh
The Ladder of St. Augustine We have not wings, we cannot soar; But we have feet to scale and climb By slow degrees, by more and more, The cloudy summits of our time. The mighty pyramids of stone That wedge-like cleave the desert airs, When nearer seen, and better known, Are but gigantic flights of stairs. The distant mountains, that uprear Their solid bastions to the skies, Are crossed by pathways, that appe...

The Reaper and the Flowersby Henry Wadsworth LongfellowThere is a Reaper, whose name is Death,And, with his sickle keen,He reaps the bearded grain at a breath,And the flowers that grow between."Shall I have naught that is fair?" saith he;"Have naught but the bearded grain?Though the breath of these flowers is sweet to me,I will give them all back again."He gazed at the flowers...

53: A Civil War Christmas with Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
“Our dispatches state that Lieut. Longfellow of First Mass. Cavalry was severely wounded.”This is the story of a son nearly lost and a poet in a dark place. Young, idealistic Charley Longfellow loves his country and is ready to fight and die for it. His father—the former Harvard College Professor of English and Literature, celebrated author, and grieving widower, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow—fears losing his son in the Civil War and doesn’t want him to enlist. But Charley does. A bullet rips through the youth soon thereafter.1863 has truly been a terrible...

“Excelsior” by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow wrote the poem "Excelsior" in the early morning hours of September 28, 1841, and it was published for the first time in a periodical four months later. Excelsior is a Latin word which loosely translated means "ever upward" or "always higher". With that in mind, this poem could be interpreted as a sort of allegory on perseverance and always striving against the odds, or alternatively, blindly following your own desires without heeding the advice and counsel of others. Either way you choose to read the piece, it is beautifully written with lots of vivid imagery as the narrative unfolds...

Today’s poem is The Builders by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. All are architects of Fate, Working in these walls of Time; Some with massive deeds and great, Some with ornaments of rhyme. Nothing useless is, or low; Each thing in its place is best; And what seems but idle show Strengthens and supports the rest. For the structure that we raise, Time is with materials filled; Our to-days and yesterdays Are the blocks with which we build. Truly shape and fashion these; Leave no yawning gaps between; Think not, because no man sees, Such things will remain unseen. In the el...

My life is cold, and dark, and dreary; It rains, and the wind is never weary; My thoughts still cling to the mouldering Past, But the hopes of youth fall thick in the blast, And the days are dark and dreary.

"The Village Blacksmith" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
First published in 1840, "The Village Blacksmith" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow is a wonderful example of a short, narrative poem. It not only tells the reader a story, but it is one which many can relate to since it is really a story of the "everyman". After its initial publication in a periodical, "The Village Blacksmith" was then included in a volume of Longfellow's works entitled Ballads and Other Poems, published in 1841, which included other now well-known poems such as, "The Wreck of the Hesperus" and "Excelsior".

"The Children's Hour" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
American poet, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, wrote "The Children's Hour" about his relationship with his own three daughters, even using their names in the piece. It was first published in 1860 in the Boston-based magazine, The Atlantic Monthly. Subsequent publishings were often accompanied by a portrait of the three girls. The poem is a beautiful look at a father's love for his children, but also contains the bittersweet tones of the realization that the childhood years are fleeting.<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/versesinvox/~4/9QIGcUmikDE" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>
