Poem of the Week

A short and sweet Christmas poem this week, by the American poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. An interesting fact about Longfellow – he was so popular in the States that by 1874 he was earning $3000 a poem. That’s the equivalent of around $70,000 in today’s money.

Christmas Bells

I heard the bells on Christmas Day
Their old, familiar carols play,
And wild and sweet
The words repeat
Of peace on earth, good-will to men!

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-1882)
