April is National Poetry Month! We are honoring the occasion this year by highlighting a poet each day. Today, we turn our attention to the poetry of Carl Sandburg.
Here are five of our favorite Carl Sandburg poems!
Street Window
Carl Sandburg
Found in:
Cornhuskers

The pawn shop man knows hunger,
And how far hunger has eaten the heart
Of one who comes with an old keepsake.
Here are wedding rings and baby bracelets,
Scarf pins and shoe buckles jeweled garters,
Old fashioned knives with inlaid handles,
Watches of old gold and silver,
Old coins worn with finger marks.
They tell stories.
