Life in Bits of Poetry and in Other Things | "One ought, every day at least, to hear a little song, read a good poem, see a fine picture, and, if it were possible, to speak a few reasonable words." So wrote Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832). This blog is primarily for adults.

"Rabbi Ben Ezra" by Robert Browning : Poetry Foundation
Of the thirty-two stanzas of Robert Browning's poem Rabbi Ben Ezra, the ones that my mother Evelyn M. Gilmer (1923-2016) liked best are the first, the sixth, the thirty-first and the thirty-second. I hope you will enjoy reading that poem in its entirety.
