  • Summary

  • Welcome to Art and Verse! Today, we’re celebrating the 8th of January by highlighting three extraordinary figures:

    • Elvis Presley (b. 1935), the King of Rock and Roll, whose legendary voice and stage presence reshaped modern music.
    • Stephen Hawking (b. 1942), the brilliant physicist who changed the way we understand black holes and the universe, inspiring millions with his intellect and resilience.
    • Wilkie Collins (b. 1824), a master of suspense and an early pioneer of the modern detective novel, best known for The Woman in White and The Moonstone.

    Today’s featured poem is Carl Sandburg’s “Chicago”, a powerful tribute to the bustling city’s gritty spirit and raw beauty.
