“The Barefoot Boy” | POEM of the week

Image
by John Greenleaf Whittier Blessings on thee, little man, Barefoot boy, with cheek of tan! With thy turned-up pantaloons, And thy merry whistled tunes; With thy red lip, redder still Kissed by strawberries on the hill; With the sunshine on thy face, Through thy torn brim’s jaunty grace; From my heart I give thee joy,— I was once a barefoot boy! Prince thou art,—the grown-up man Only is republican. Let the million-dollared ride! Barefoot, trudging at his side, Thou hast more than he can buy In the reach of ear and eye,— Outward sunshine, inward joy: Blessings on thee, barefoot boy! Oh for boyhood’s painless play, Sleep that wakes in laughing day, Health that mocks the doctor’s rules, Knowledge never learned of schools, Of the wild bee’s morning chase, Of the wild-flower’s time and place, Flight of fowl and habitude Of the tenants of the wood; How the tortoise bears his shell, How the woodchuck digs his cell, And the ground...

Of the Week | BLOG of the week

Image
a collage of the first 100 "of the weeks" This is the 100th "of the week." Because of that, today's "of the week" is Of the Week itself. This blog exists to highlight on a weekly basis quality content that is entertaining, enlightening, or encouraging. When browsing the Web, you might occasionally see an "of the week" or "of the day." Some might feature music, some people, others Bible verses, and still others inspirational thoughts or quotes. Of the Week was specifically designed to not limit itself to any one category; and so far, 34 different categories have been used. The content should be limited in one way however: to "whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable" ( Philippians 4:8 ESV). It's been a fun journey so far, and I'm looking forward to the next 100 weeks. So have fun exploring  Of the Week's   first 100 post...
