Poems by Edgar Albert Guest
The Common Joys
... And peace when every task is through ...
The Book Of Memory
... Saying: "These the things you need," ...
Who Is Your Boss?
... " Oh, youth, thought I, you're bound to climb ...
His Other Chance
... But there's two of you living and breathing still ...
The Cure
... When you think when you're called to the telephone ...
A Convalescin' Woman
... An' you've got to watch 'em allus, when you know they're weak an' ill, ...
Aunty
... But sometimes she's over-loving, an' your cheeks turn red with shame ...
Buckle In
... That's the way to show the stuff you 're made of, ...
Out At Pelletier's
... Where the poultry sort o' swaggers in its best bluer-ribbon style, ...
The Sweetest Soul I Ever Knew
... The shattered hopes that were held in vain, ...
What A Baby Costs
... Why, sometimes when they're fast asleep ...
Mother Of Five
... From her they learned the wrongs they ought to shun, ...
The Broken Drum
... There's a little cheek that's tear-stained ...
The Boy Soldier
... And though he breaks my good cigars, ...
Song Of The Many
... Always found at their posts when they're needed, ...
