PEARLS AND POEMS
I Hear America Singing
PEARLS
Walt Whitman
I hear America singing, the varied carols I hear, Those of mechanics, each one singing his as it should be blithe and strong, The carpenter singing his as he measures his plank or beam, The mason singing his as he makes ready for work, or leaves off work, The boatman singing what belongs to him in his boat, the deckhand singing on the steamboat deck, The shoemaker singing as he sits on his bench, the hatter singing as he stands, The wood-cutter’s song, the ploughboy’s on his way in the morning, or at noon intermission or at sundown, The delicious singing of the mother, or of the young wife at work, or of the girl sewing or washing, Each singing what belongs to him or her and to none else, The day what belongs to the day—at night the party of young fellows, robust, friendly, Singing with open mouths their strong melodious songs.
FROM PAULA
To Buy or not to Buy… Buyers have had a tough go of it these past few years. First with the bidding wars, low inventory and tremendous price gains and now the rapidly rising interest rates.. Our buyers just can’t seem to catch a break! Some are calling for a housing market correction in the near future but according to Tabitha Mazzara in a recent article published by Forbes,“If you’re waiting for prices to suddenly plummet to what they were in the past, you’re making a mistake. The Fed has promised another interest rate boost. If you’re ready to buy, don’t wait because prices aren’t headed dramatically downwards to what our parents paid.Things might dip a bit, but there’s no cliff dive that’s going to happen”.
