In Loving Memory of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

A brilliant mind and a poetic soul, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, you left us whole. With your verses enchanting and words so wise, You stirred emotions, touched hearts, and made spirits rise.

Through your eloquence, the world came alive, Transcending time, your poems forever thrive. From "Paul Revere's Ride" to "The Song of Hiawatha", Your tales ignited imaginations that soared and gathered.

In "A Psalm of Life," you instilled hope and light, Guiding us to live with purpose, with all our might. Through "The Rainy Day," you found beauty in despair, Teaching us life's trials and sorrows we all must bear.

Your words were a reflection of love and heartache, Of liberty, faith, and the bonds we aim to make. "Listen, my children, and you shall hear," you declared, Of tales and history that we should hold dear.

We commemorate your life, dear Longfellow, today, For the poetic legacy you left will never fade away. Your poems continue to inspire, comfort, and heal, Reminding us that through art, our souls can truly feel.

Rest in peace, dear Longfellow, your spirit lives on, In every line, every stanza, your influence is strong. We honor your memory, your lyrical grace, And forever cherish the beauty you bestowed upon this place.
