This is the second in a series of sermons that make use of Carl Sandburg poems. The two this week are "Waiting" and "Testament". This was the first of a series of sermons that utilized the poetry of Carl Sandburg. It starts strangely because I began with the first lines of the poem below. HAPPINESS I ASKED the professors who teach the meaning of life to tell me what is happiness. And I went to famous executives who boss the work of thousands of men. They all shook their heads and gave me a smile as though I was trying to fool with them And then one Sunday afternoon I wandered out along the Desplaines river And I saw a crowd of Hungarians under the trees with their women and children and a keg of beer and an accordion. |
