Write three to five sentences describing the picture
this poem creates by using repetition and free verse
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 dock;
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 the 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 her, and to none else;

The repetition of singing throughout the poem paints a picture of many Americans working and singing at the same time. The poem also repeats the idea that each person's song is his own, so the image is one of many different songs being sung at once. Their songs and jobs are all different, but they seem happy and joined together in song.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
