Poems by Edgar Albert Guest
As Fall The Leaves
... That cheered them so, would quickly fade: ...
Leader Of The Gang
... And I can still recall the thrill of that first cry of his which rang ...
The Need
... "The trouble ain't with statutes or with systems— ...
Alone
... And the greed and grind of a selfish life, ...
June
... Weaving garlands for our lassies, whispering love songs in the trees, ...
The Right To Joy
... I want to know life's burden and its strife, ...
She Powders Her Nose
... And the whole world must wait till she powders her nose ...
The Birth Of Love
... With her eyes just as bright as the stars in the sky, ...
To The Men At Home
... By what they are, a nation's strength is shown, ...
The Family Party
... Oh, there 's nothing now can beat them though we've put on style and airs, ...
On A Certain Religious Argument
... But the rose will bloom and the summer still ...
As We Prayed
... When our hearts with grief were stirred, ...
The Little Home
... From which the soul's contentment springs ...
His Room
... For never night shall thrill with joy ...
No Better Land Than This
... There's no happier, better nation on the world's broad face than this ...
