Ain't it fine when things are going Topsy-turvy and askew To discover someone showing Good old-fashioned faith in you? Ain't it good when life seems dreary And your hopes about to end, Just to feel the handclasp cheery Of a fine old loyal friend? Gosh! one fellow to another Means a lot from day to day, Seems we're living for each other In a friendly sort of way. When a smile or cheerful greetin' Means so much to fellows sore, Seems we ought to keep repeatin' Smiles an' praises more an' more. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...DON JUAN: CANTO 1 by GEORGE GORDON BYRON THE RIDDLERS by WALTER JOHN DE LA MARE EPICOENE; OR, THE SILENT WOMAN: FREEDOM IN DRESS by BEN JONSON LIVE BLINDLY; SONNET by TRUMBULL STICKNEY THE BIRTHDAY CROWN by WILLIAM ALEXANDER (1824-1911) BENNINGTON by WILLIAM HENRY BABCOCK |
