I have chosen two poems‚ A Song of The Republic‚ by Henry Lawson (1867-1922)‚ and ’If You Forget Me ’ by Pablo Neruda (1904-1973).

of John Henry. The legend of John Henry is about an African American male who manually works on a railroad with a hammer and was proud of his work. Others working on the railroad could not match or exceed John Henrys capabilities as it pertained to hammering railroad spikes.
