Sir Charles George Douglas Roberts Heart Poems
1. Grey Rocks, And Greyer Sea
Grey rocks, and greyer sea,
And surf along the shore --
And in my heart a name
My lips shall speak no more. ...
2. Wayfarer Of Earth
Up, heart of mine,
Thou wayfarer of Earth!
Of seed divine,
Be mindful of thy birth. ...
3. The Skater
My glad feet shod with the glittering steel
I was the god of the wingèd heel.
The hills in the far white sky were lost;
The world lay still in the wide white frost; ...
4. Canadian Streams
O rivers rolling to the sea
From lands that bear the maple-tree,
How swell your voices with the strain
Of loyalty and liberty! ...
5. Hilltop Song
When the lights come out in the cottages
Along the shores at eve,
And across the darkening water
The last pale colours leave; ...
6. The Frosted Pane
One night came Winter noiselessly, and leaned
Against my window-pane.
In the deep stillness of his heart convened
The ghosts of all his slain. ...
7. An Epitaph For A Husbandman
He who would start and rise
Before the crowing cocks, --
No more he lifts his eyes,
Whoever knocks. ...
8. At The Gates Of Spring
With April here,
And first thin green on the awakening bough,
What wonderful things and dear,
My tired heart to cheer, ...
9. The Great And Little Weavers
The great and the little weavers,
They neither rest nor sleep.
They work in the height and the glory,
They toil in the dark and the deep. ...

The Song Of The Mouth-Organ
by Robert Service
(With apologies to the singer of the “Song of the Banjo”.)
I'm a homely little bit of tin and bone;
I'm beloved by the Legion of the Lost;
I haven't got a “vox humana” tone,
And a dime or two will satisfy my cost.
I don't attempt your high-falutin' flights;
I am more or less uncertain on the key;
