Book excerpt: Excerpt from Six Hundred and Fifty Selected Poems: From the People's Home Journal and Good Literature Christmas Bells. Ring out in joy, oh, chiming bells, For in your melody there dwells The music glad of Christmas-tide On every hearthstone far and wide, And rosy lips with laughter sweet The happy songs of life repeat - Ring out in joy! Ring out in hope, oh, chiming bells, For your clear voice of patience tells To waiting hearts whose promise yields No golden fruit of harvest-fields, Whose garnered grain of toiling hand Lies heaped upon a barren land - Ring out in hope! Ring out in grief, oh, chiming bells, For in your trembling echo dwells To saddened hearts a thought of old, A picture framed in memory's gold, A vanished face beneath the snow, A dream of life's sweet long ago - Ring out in grief! Ring out in cheer, oh, chiming bells, For in your peals a promise dwells To listening hearts that strive to hear The future's voice of hope and cheer; For love and joy will have their birth As snowdrops spring from icy earth Ring out in cheer! Ring out in peace, oh, chiming bells, For Christmas-tide a message tells To eager souls that bravely wait, And loyal hearts too strong for fate To crush to earth; oh, listen then 'Tis "peace on earth, good will to men" - Ring out in peace! The Little White Hearse. Somebody's baby was buried to-day - The empty white hearse from the grave rumbled back, And the morning, somehow, seemed less smiling and gay, As I paused on the walk while it crossed on its way, And a shadow seemed drawn o'er the suns golden track. Somebody's baby was laid out to rest, White as a snowdrop and fair to behold, And the soft little hands were crossed over the breast, And the bauds and the lips and the eyelids were pressed With kisses as hot as the eyelids were cold. Somebody saw it go out of her sight Under the coffin-lid, out of the door, Somebody finds only darkness and blight All thro' the glory of summer sunlight - Some one whose baby will waken no more. Somebody's sorrow is making me weep. I know not her name, but I echo her cry For the dearly bought baby she longed so to keep, The baby that rode to its long lasting sleep In the little white hearse that went rumbling by. I know not her name, but her sorrow I know. While I paused on the crossing I lived it once more - And back to my heart surged that river of woe That but in the breast of a mother can flow - For the little white hearse has been, too, at my door. - Ella Wheeler Wilcox.

Download or read book Such Color written by Tracy K. Smith and published by Graywolf Press. This book was released on 2021-10-05 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Tracy K. Smith’s poetry is an awakening itself.” —Vogue Celebrated for its extraordinary intelligence and exhilarating range, the poetry of Tracy K. Smith opens up vast questions. Such Color: New and Selected Poems, her first career-spanning volume, traces an increasingly audacious commitment to exploring the unknowable, the immense mysteries of existence. Each of Smith’s four collections moves farther outward: when one seems to reach the limits of desire and the body, the next investigates the very sweep of history; when one encounters death and the outer reaches of space, the next bears witness to violence against language and people from across time and delves into the rescuing possibilities of the everlasting. Smith’s signature voice, whether in elegy or praise or outrage, insists upon vibrancy and hope, even—and especially—in moments of inconceivable travesty and grief. Such Color collects the best poems from Smith’s award-winning books and culminates in thirty pages of brilliant, excoriating new poems. These new works confront America’s historical and contemporary racism and injustices, while they also rise toward the registers of the ecstatic, the rapturous, and the sacred—urging us toward love as a resistance to everything that impedes it. This magnificent retrospective affirms Smith’s place as one of the twenty-first century’s most treasured poets.
Book Synopsis New and Selected Poems by : Mary Oliver
Download or read book New and Selected Poems written by Mary Oliver and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the astonishing aspects of [Oliver's] work is the consistency of tone over this long period. What changes is an increased focus on nature and an increased precision with language that has made her one of our very best poets. . . . These poems sustain us rather than divert us. Although few poets have fewer human beings in their poems than Mary Oliver, it is ironic that few poets also go so far to help us forward.

Book Synopsis Selected Poems by : Edwin Arlington Robinson
Download or read book Selected Poems written by Edwin Arlington Robinson and published by Penguin. This book was released on 1997-12-01 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Penguin Classic A best seller in his lifetime though neglected in recent years, Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869-1935) is due to be restored to his rightful place in literary history as one of the first great American Modernist poets. His poetry was revolutionary, though it looked deceptively conventional because it was written in metre and rhyme. He cast aside the stiff archaism and prettiness favoured by his contemporaries, instead employing everyday language with dramatic power, wit, and sensitivity. His lyric poems illuminate ordinary people, especially the downtrodden, the bereft, and the mistunderstood. In the process he created the gallery of character portraits for which he is most fondly remembered, among them Eben Flood, Aunt Imogen, Isaac and Archibald, Miniver Cheevy and Richard Cory. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.

Book Synopsis Selected Poems by : Wystan Hugh Auden
Download or read book Selected Poems written by Wystan Hugh Auden and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many years there existed a general feeling that the selection made by Auden himself in 1968 was far from satisfactory. It was too short to provide a full introduction to such a large body of work; perhaps it was too weighted in favour of the later poetry; at the time it was made some famous poems, or portions of poems were still under an embargo imposed by Auden himself which remained in force until his death. This edition contains an introduction which is an examination of the nature of Auden's genius and of his position and stature in 20th-century literature.
