Birthday Honors for Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
This week marks the birthday of America's famed poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow born February 27, 1807. Though not the greatest poet by some measures, his works celebrate daily life and childhood, earning him the nickname Children's Poet as students gifted him a chestnut wood chain from the Village Smithy. His remembered lines include The Psalm of Life and Hiawatha.
