Write your comment about Delia poem by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Delia Marheineke: Having never heard of it before, I naturally find this poem enchanting, and may ask for it to be said at my funeral.
Given that I am a published poet myself, I had only ever read the famous narrative poem Hiawatha, written by Longfellow. Thank you.
