On Whittier

His works of great beauty remain as worthy of note
The great John Greenleaf Whittier a legendary poet
In his lines his beautiful Maud Muller is living today
As she works in the meadow midst the sweet scent of hay.
And Barbara Frietchie the noble old dear
Flies her Nation's flag in defiance of fear
Since her time many Seasons have come and have gone
But in Whittier's poetry the brave one lives on.
Even some of today's poets Whittier's works inspire
Of reading his poems could one ever tire
One who in his lifetime knew fame beyond his countryside
Greatness of the man can never be denied.
He was destined to live on in literary renown
And his fame lives on distant from his Hometown
His poems are read and recited far from U S A shore
You read some of his poems and you will read some more
