Poems by Robert William Service
My Consolation
... From fool and bore ...
Procreation
... Meseems I might have planned it wiser ...
The Prisoner
... 'Quite right! You should not pay the price ...
The Prospector
... And I sighed: "Ah, old-time miner, here's your doom!"The idle windlass turns to rust ...
My Centenarian
... Thinks I: I'll give him a joy that's thrilling, ...
Finality
... Though fools for knowledge delve too deep, ...
The Man From Athabaska
... and colour, how they harken unto me!And I tell them of the Furland, of the tumpline and the paddle, ...
Tri-Colour
... her of Pity, hide them! Hasten, O God, Thy night!Lillies (the light is waning), only lilies you say, ...
Beachcomber
... And drink from out the crystal spring, and eat from off the tree, ...
The Hearth-Stone
... . . Well, flesh is grass and Time must pass,-- ...
The Wildy Ones
... While goats have starlight in their eyes, ...
The Centenarians
... Well, you may take your choice ...
Pantheist
... O Nature - everlasting peace! Amen ...
The Nostomaniac
... . . who knows, who knows!I'm dreaming to-night in the fire-glow, alone in my study tower, ...
Cardiac
... Is worth your health ...
