TAKING BROTHER'S PICTURE by BURGES JOHNSON

First Line: HE FELT QUITE MISER'BLE, I KNOW
Last Line: "SAID ""LOOK AS PLEASANT AS YOU CAN!"
Subject(s): BROTHERS; CHILDREN; DISCONTENT; PHOTOGRAPHY & PHOTOGRAPHERS; PORTRAITS; HALF-BROTHERS; CHILDHOOD; DISSATISFACTION;

He felt quite miser'ble, I know,
Dressed in his Sunday best;
They pinched his head and sat him so
He was uncomfyest.
And then that silly picture-man
Said "Look as pleasant as you can!"
