Poetry ~ Cabbage After Christmas

In the average man is curled the hero stuff that rules the world.  Sam Walter Foss

Beginning in 1898, Foss served as librarian at the Somerville Public Library in Massachusetts. He married a minister’s daughter, with whom he had a daughter and son. Foss used to write a poem a day for the newspapers, and his five volumes of collected poetry are of the frank and homely “common man” variety. (Wikipedia)
