Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Swazy Folks and Others Poems A Good friend has made objections to the title of this book, saying: "People don´t know where Swazy is!" O, but they do! Every one has his Swazy - long "a," please, as in "hayin´." Every one knows that Swazy is any place where the population is sparse, where the cider mill and the shingle factory mark the line where the village leaves off and the open country begins; where "Town Meetin"´ and Firemen´s Day mark the cycle of time; where quoit pitching in the Methodist churchsheds and Sam Scribner´s Wagon Circus leaven honest toil and the even-tenored lives of the village "folks." O, yes, almost every man, who has ever made much of a success of things, came from a Swazy, somewhere. As for "the others," whose lives or stories are herein rhymed, they are people whom we have all met - soldiers, range-riders, sailors, "gods of the open air." Lastly, not a few of the verses are about children, the merry little souls who stand in the fields of Youth and watch us as we pass along the Path of Reality, turning bright faces to us for the instant and making us happier for it.
