Robert William Service Poems
- Prelude: Ballads Of A Bohemian
Alas! upon some starry height,
The Gods of Excellence to please,
This hand of mine will never smite
The Harp of High Serenities. ... - L'envoi - Ballads Of A Bohemian
We've finished up the filthy war;
We've won what we were fighting for . . .
(Or have we? I don't know).
But anyway I have my wish: ... - The Bright Side
Oh, one gets used to everything!
I hum a merry song,
And up the street and round the square
I wheel my chair along; ... - L'envoi (songs Of A Sourdough)
You who have lived in the Land,
You who have trusted the trail;
You who are strong to withstand,
You who are swift to assail; ... - Rhymes Of A Rolling Stone - Prelude
I sing no idle songs of dalliance days,
No dreams Elysian inspire my rhyming;
I have no Celia to enchant my lays,
No pipes of Pan have set my heart to chiming. ...
