He sometimes alludes to nature in classical myth (“A Glimpse of Pan”), and often presents nature as the background of a happy childhood (“The All-Golden”), but in most such poems he does not comment specifically on Indiana’s natural features.

Born the second son and third out of six children to Reuben and Elizabeth Riley, James inherited gifts from both parents that would later contribute to making him Indiana ’s most beloved poet. Reuben Riley – civil war veteran, lawyer and politician – was in great demand for his extraordinary political speeches. Elizabeth, a poet and storyteller, often entertained her young children with fairy tales and funny stories. These combined talents would later contribute to their son’s successful career as both a poet and orator.

    Extractions: Gravestone? HAPPY REMEMBRANCES of JAMES WHITCOMB RILEY Yes, Happy Remembrance of YOU James Whitcomb Riley, America's Children's Poet and the poet of the Hoosier people wherever they may be around the world. Riley is, you see, the "Hoosier Poet." "Hoosier" is not just a name for Indiana folk. No, it is the name for people who are humble before God and hardworking despite suffering all that life throws at them. They are sympathetic with the plight of others and tolerant beyond measure of race, creed, gender, orientation or social status. Each Hoosier keeps an eye out for trouble but hopes and prays that none hits him or her. The themes of the poetry of a "Hoosier Poet" reflect this kenotic outlook.
