  2. William Woodsworth THE PRELUDE INTRODUCTION--CHILDHOOD AND SCHOOL-TIME OH there is blessing in this gentle breeze, A visitant that while it fans my cheek Doth seem half-conscious of the joy it brings From the green fields, and from yon azure sky. Whate'er its mission, the soft breeze can come To none more grateful than to me; escaped From the vast city, where I long had pined A discontented sojourner: now free, Free as a bird to settle where I will. What dwelling shall receive me? in what vale 10 Shall be my harbour? underneath what grove Shall I take up my home? and what clear stream Shall with its murmur lull me into rest? http://www.bartleby.com/145/ww287.html

  3. My father made the walls resound,He wore his collar the wrong way round.When I was five the black dreamscame;Nothing after was quite the same.When I woke they did not care;Nobody, nobody was there.In my childhood trees were greenAnd there was plenty to be seen.When my silent terror cried,Nobody, nobody replied.I got up; the chilly sunSaw me walk away alone. My mother wore a yellow dress;Gentle, gently, gentleness.The dark was talking to the dead;The lamp was dark beside my bed.Come back early or never come.Come back early or never come.Come back early or never come.Come back early or never come.Come back early or never come.Come back early or never come.Come back early or never come.Come back early or never come. Louis Macneice

  6. I AM I am a nutty guy who likes dolphins.I wonder what I, and the world, will be like in the year 2000.I hear silence pulsing in the middle of the night.I see a dolphin flying up to the sky.I want the adventure of life before it passes me by.I am a nutty guy who likes dolphins.I pretend that I'm the ruler of the world.I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders.I touch the sky, the stars, the moon, and all the planets asrepresentatives of mankind.I worry about the devastation of a nuclear holocaust.I cry for all the death and poverty in the worldI am a nutty guy who likes dolphins.I understand the frustration of not being able to do something easily.I say that we are all equal.I dream of traveling to other points on the earth.I try to reach out to poor and starving children.I hope that mankind will be at peace and not die out.I am a nutty guy who likes dolphins.--SANDY MAAS
