And thought how, as the day had come,The belfries of all Christendom    Had rolled along    The unbroken songOf peace on earth, good-will to men! Till ringing, singing on its way,The world revolved from night to day,    A voice, a chime,    A chant sublimeOf peace on earth, good-will to men! Then from each black, accursed mouthThe cannon thundered in the South,    And with the sound    The carols drownedOf peace on earth, good-will to men! It was as if an earthquake rentThe hearth-stones of a continent,    And made forlorn    The households bornOf peace on earth, good-will to men! And in despair I bowed my head;"There is no peace on earth," I said;    "For hate is strong,    And mocks the songOf peace on earth, good-will to men!" Then pealed the bells more loud and deep:"God is not dead, nor doth He sleep;    The Wrong shall fail,    The Right prevail,With peace on earth, good-will to men."

    "A Tragic Story" by William Makepeace Thackeray There lived a sage in days of yore,And he a handsome pigtail wore;But wondered much and sorrowed more,Because it hung behind him. He mused upon this curious case,And swore he'd change the pigtail's place,And have it hanging at his face,Not dangling there behind him. Says he, "The mystery I've found -Says he, "The mystery I've found!I'll turn me round," - he turned him round;But still it hung behind him. Then round and round, and out and in,All day the puzzled sage did spin;In vain - it mattered not a pin -The pigtail hung behind him. And right and left and round about,And up and down and in and outHe turned; but still the pigtail stoutHung steadily behind him. And though his efforts never slack,And though he twist and twirl, and tack,Alas! Still faithful to his back,The pigtail hangs behind him.

    "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud" by William Wordsworth I wandered lonely as a cloudThat floats on high o'er vales and hills,When all at once I saw a crowd,A host, of golden daffodils;Beside the lake, beneath the trees,Fluttering and dancing in the breeze. Continuous as the stars that shineAnd twinkle on the milky way,They stretched in never-ending lineAlong the margin of a bay:Ten thousand saw I at a glance,Tossing their heads in sprightly dance. The waves beside them danced; but theyOut-did the sparkling waves in glee:A poet could not but be gay,In such a jocund company:I gazed—and gazed—but little thoughtWhat wealth the show to me had brought: For oft, when on my couch I lieIn vacant or in pensive mood,They flash upon that inward eyeWhich is the bliss of solitude;And then my heart with pleasure fills,And dances with the daffodils.

Did you know that sometimes poems talk to each other?   Our first poem is "The Road Not Taken" by Robert Frost   Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth;   Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same,   And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back.   I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.     The second poem is “Two Roads” by Chris Harris   Two roads diverged in a wood, and I -- I took the one less traveled by...
