Poems by Robert William Service
The Song Of The Mouth-Organ
... When you cheered your messmates nine with "Ben Bolt" and "Clementine", ...
Wistful
... Bossed by bullion, crossed by care - ...
Julot The Apache
... Three hundred francs I'd scraped and squeezed to pay my quarter's rent ...
The Ballad Of One-Eyed Mike
... As the Northlights gleamed and curved and streamed, and the bottle of "hooch" was dry ...
The Legless Man
... (The Dark Side)My mind goes back to Fumin Wood, and how we stuck it out, ...
The Seance
... . ." "'Tis Robert service," soft replied ...
Just Think!
... Just think! some night the stars will gleam ...
The Argument
... . . He called his greatest hero - HAMlet ...
Toledo
... But here there's four - that's pretty tough ...
Stamp Collector
... For who would dream such treasures it could hold ...
Stowaway
... And from my palm picked crumbs of biscuit ...
Room Ghost
... He holds and winks and drinks it down ...
Detachment
... Yet there I dream, despite the din, ...
Treat 'Em Rough
... Thinks I, I'll treat 'em rough ...
The Little Workgirl
... Yet . . . oh, the poor little white faces, ...
