Carl Sandburg Quotes

Time is the coin of your life.  It is the only coin you have, and only you can determine how it will be spent.  Be careful lest you let other people spend it for you.

Yesterday is done.  Tomorrow never comes.  Today is here.  If you don’t know what to do, sit still and listen.  You may hear something.  Nobody knows.

Carl Sandburg (1878-1967) was an American writer and journalist.  Many of his works centered around poetry (he preferred “free verse’) and writing biographies.  One of his most well-received biographies was about American President Abraham Lincoln.  He received three Pulitzer Prizes (two for poetry and one for his Lincoln biography).  Sandburg was born in Galesburg, Illinois.

Encouraging Heavens

Vastness of oceans deep

Swimming with endless wonders

Encouraging what world should keep

Heavens answer with thunder

 

Vastness of universe

Swimming with infinite stars

Encouraging nature’s free verse

Heavens address from afar

 

Vastness of instinct flows

Swimming to every shoreline

Encouraging children, let’s grow

Heavens praise learning’s outline

 

Vastness of human mind

Swimming toward tomorrow

Encouraging love, always kind

Heavens remove all sorrow

 

Vastness of creation

Swimming with unending light

Encouraging every nation

Heavens transform man’s foresight

Writing poetry allows the creator to take a theme and journey into the depth of its wonders.
