I always think of Franklin's trick, which brought the jeers of men. Yet Franklin gave us wonders great and Fulton did the same, And many "boobs" have left behind an everlasting fame. She was sorry she hadn't asked others to come, She might just as well have had eight; She said she was downcast and terribly glum Because her dear husband was late. Poem myself by edgar guest. The Old-Fashioned Thanksgiving. And there, till the sun comes over the hill, You frolic and romp and play, And of candy and cake you eat your fill, With no one to tell you "Nay! "
Poem Myself By Edgar Guest Blog
You cannot have the joys of work And take the comfort of a shirk. Lacking something that was best, Till the baby came. And that banner we are proud of, with its red and blue and white, Is a lasting holy tribute to all mothers' love of right. Poem myself by edgar guest blogging. I saw him scarce a moment, yet I knew his lips were blue And I knew his teeth were chattering just as mine were wont to do; And I knew his merry playmates in the pond were splashing still; I could tell how much he envied all the boys that never chill; And throughout that lonesome journey, I kept living o'er and o'er The joys of going swimming when no bathing suits we wore; I was with that little fellow, standing chattering in the sun; I was sharing in his shivers and a partner of his fun.

We were kids set free from shamming And the city's awful cramming, And the clamor and the bustle And the fearful rush and hustle— Out of doors with room to race in And broad acres soft to chase in. The new days, the new days, the selfsame days they are; The selfsame sunshine heralds them, the selfsame evening star Shines out to light them on their way unto the Bygone Land, And with the selfsame arch of blue the world to-day is spanned. If I had lived in Franklin's time I'm most afraid that I, Beholding him out in the rain, a kite about to fly, And noticing upon its tail the barn door's rusty key, Would, with the scoffers on the street, have chortled in my glee; And with a sneer upon my lips I would have said of Ben, "His belfry must be full of bats.

The charm of living's back again—a charm that servants rob— I like the home, I like the meals, when Nellie's on the job. Like to start the day with laughter; when I've had a peaceful night, An' can greet the sun all smilin', that day's goin' to be all right.
Poem Myself By Edgar Guest Blogging
Little women, little men, Hearts are light when years are ten; Eyes are bright and cheeks are red When life's cares lie all ahead. There are no gods that bring to youth The rich rewards that stalwarts claim; The god of fortune is in truth A vision and an empty name. You're well equipped for what fight you choose, You have legs and arms and a brain to use, And the man who has risen great deeds to do. I'm eagerly waiting the glad days— When fashion will cease to assert What I must put on every morning— The days of the blue flannel shirt.
The happiest mortal on the earth is he who ends his day By leaving better than he found to bloom along the way. Courage must come from the soul within, The man must furnish the will to win. How glad it seemed When as a boy I sat and dreamed Above my school books, of the fun That I should claim when toil was done; And, Oh, how oft my youthful eye Went wandering with the patch of sky That drifted by the window panes O'er pleasant fields and dusty lanes, Where I would race and romp and shout The very moment school was out. Girls with curls go walking by, Dainty, graceful, bold an' shy, But the one that takes my eye Is Ma.
Poem Myself By Edgar Guest Star
There never was a family without its homely man, With legs a little longer than the ordinary plan, An' a shock of hair that brush an' comb can't ever straighten out, An' hands that somehow never seem to know what they're about; The one with freckled features and a nose that looks as though It was fashioned by the youngsters from a chunk of mother's dough. The sofa pillows are a sight, The rugs are looking somewhat frayed, And there is ruin, left and right, That little Boston bull has made. My grandpa is the finest man Excep' my pa. My grandpa can Make kites an' carts an' lots of things You pull along the ground with strings, And he knows all the names of birds, And how they call 'thout using words, And where they live and what they eat, And how they build their nests so neat. Be what you were when youth was fine And send to her a valentine; Forget the burdens and the woe That have been given you to know And to the wife, so fond and true, The pledges of the past renew 'Twill cure her life of every ill To find that you're her sweetheart still. I may not own the skill to rise To glory's topmost height, Nor win a place among the wise, But I can keep the right.

'Tis an outfit meant for pleasure; It is freedom's raiment, too; It's a garb that I shall treasure Till my time of life is through. I've forgotten that I am old, I've forgotten my story's told; Whistling boy down the lane I stroll, All untouched by the blows of fate, Time turns back and I'm young of soul, Dreaming there by the open grate. Sometimes he stops and shows to me The place where fairies used to be; And then he tells me stories, too, And I am sorry when he's through. It seems to me I've never tried To do so much about the place, Nor been so slow to come inside, But since I've got the flag to face, Each night when I come home to rest I feel that I must look up there And say: "Old Flag, I've done my best, To-day I've tried to do my share. " The old days, the old days, how oft the poets sing, The days of hope at dewy morn, the days of early spring, The days when every mead was fair, and every heart was true, And every maiden wore a smile, and every sky was blue The days when dreams were golden and every night brought rest, The old, old days of youth and love, the days they say were best But I—I sing the new days, the days that lie before, The days of hope and fancy, the days that I adore. What wonderful thoughts are you thinking now?
Poem Myself By Edgar Guest
I'd not take him when he's sneering, when he's scornful or depressed, But I'd look for him at Christmas when he's shining at his best. And the boy who's upstairs weeping, In the years that are to come Will learn that many pleasures Are as empty as his drum. Who jumps in the air and then lands with a thud On his poor daddy's stomach?

Just what other men have met. I'm fond of flowers, but admit, For digging I don't care a bit. If he is honest, kindly, true, And glad to work from day to day; If when his bit of toil is through With children he will stoop to play; If he does always what he can To serve another's time of need, Then I shall hail him as a man And never ask him what's his creed. And a courtlier manner no prince ever had Than the little old man that she speaks of as "dad. " I used to dread my daily chore, I used to think it tough When mother at the kitchen door Said I'd not chopped enough. And yet I gladly stand the strain, And count the task worth while, Nor will I dismally complain While Buddy wears a smile. Ain't no use as I can see In sittin' underneath a tree An' growlin' that your luck is bad, An' that your life is extry sad; Your life ain't sadder than your neighbor's Nor any harder are your labors; It rains on him the same as you, An' he has work he hates to do; An' he gits tired an' he gits cross, An' he has trouble with the boss; You take his whole life, through an' through, Why, he's no better off than you. Somebody said that it couldn't be done. Mahatma Gandhi Quotes.
Poem Myself By Edgar A Guest
Give me the end of the year an' its fun When most of the plannin' an' toilin' is done; Bring all the wanderers home to the nest, Let me sit down with the ones I love best, Hear the old voices still ringin' with song, See the old faces unblemished by wrong, See the old table with all of its chairs An I'll put soul in my Thanksgivin' prayers. The roads that oft we used to tread In early days when first we mated, When hearts were light and cheeks were red, And days were not with burdens freighted. Pa wound it up for Uncle Jim to show him how it went, And when those two got through with it the runnin' gear was bent, An' now it doesn't go at all. And in the locker room at night, When men discuss their play, I hear them and I wish I might Have seen them—yesterday, Oh, dear old yesterday!

To-day I drive a car And three glad youngsters madly strive to share the "seat with Pa. " And older folks that ride with us, I very plainly see, Maneuver in their artful ways to sit in front with me; Though all the cushions in the world were piled up in the rear, The child in all of us still longs to watch the engineer. The poorest of us can afford His frugal meal to share. And though God has not sent one down To you, within this very town Somewhere a little baby lies That would bring gladness to your eyes. When it's Christmas man is bigger and is better in his part; He is keener for the service that is prompted by the heart.
Poem By Edgar Guest
What store Of joys for men you hold! It' is every day within us—all the rest is hippodrome— And the soul that is the gladdest is the soul that builds a home. Shall you not win His praises By toiling at your loom? Abraham Lincoln Quotes. When they're brown as little berries and they're bare of foot and head, And they're on the go each minute where the velvet lawns are spread, Then their health is at its finest and they never stop to rest, Oh, it's then I think the children look and are their very best.
And he's the one that sits all night to watch beside the dead, And sends the worn-out sorrowers and broken hearts to bed. "It's dull and dreary toil, " said he, "And brings but small reward to me. He placed about them willow trees To catch the murmur of the breeze, And sent the birds that sing the best Among the foliage to nest. An empty purse I'll look upon Contented, if its record's kind. Oh, I don't know how to say it, but somehow it seems to me That at Christmas man is almost what God sent him here to be. With the sun in my face And the roses to grace The roads that I travel, what have I to fear? Home was never half so blest, Till the baby came. There are ways to hold pain like night follows day. Would you take a fortune and never see The man, in a few brief years, he'll be? Look them over, the wise and great.
His ears were those I'd sung to; His chubby little hands Were those that I had clung to; His hair in golden strands It seemed my heart was strung to By love's unbroken bands. The choir loft where father sang comes back to me again; I hear his tenor voice once more the way I heard it when The deacons used to pass the plate, and once again I see The people fumbling for their coins, as glad as they could be To drop their quarters on the plate, and I'm a boy once more With my two pennies in my fist that mother gave before We left the house, and once again I'm reaching out to try To drop them on the plate before the deacon passes by.
