hello to all thanks for stopping by I am now on my 3rd job in 6 months since moving to my village of Elysburg, PA. The very small village doesn't have what Watsontown has so I come home alot I miss being online so I need to change the background to a solid color. I need help in that part.
227 years ago...on July 4th, 1776
This great nation, the United States of America,
In a struggle for what was right and free,
Was proudly born...
May we celebrate that precious freedom
For which our forbears fought so bravely...
The freedom that is inherent
In the Stars and Stripes, our revered flag...
Celebrate Freedom
This Fourth of July!
Galatians 5:1
[ Freedom in Christ ]
It is for freedom
that
Christ has set us free.
GOD BLESS YOU,
JOHN
Poetry of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Ultima Thule
THE WINDMILL
Behold! a giant am I!
Aloft here in my tower,
With my granite jaws I devour
The maize, and the wheat, and the rye,
And grind them into flour.
I look down over the farms;
In the fields of grain I see
The harvest that is to be,
And I fling to the air my arms,
For I know it is all for me.
I hear the sound of flails
Far off, from the threshing-floors
In barns, with their open doors,
And the wind, the wind in my sails,
Louder and louder roars.
I stand here in my place,
With my foot on the rock below,
And whichever way it may blow
I meet it face to face,
As a brave man meets his foe.
And while we wrestle and strive
My master, the miller, stands
And feeds me with his hands;
For he knows who makes him thrive,
Who makes him lord of lands.
On Sundays I take my rest;
Church-going bells begin
Their low, melodious din;
I cross my arms on my breast,
And all is peace within.
ALTHOUGH THIS IS A PICTURE OF A WATERMILL I THOUGHT THE BEAUTY OF HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW'S POEM "THE WINDMILL" AND THE BEAUTY OF THIS PICTURE WENT TOGETHER SO MUCH THAT I WANTED TO SHARE IT WITH YOU. :)
GOD BLESS YOU,
JOHN
