Edgar Guest - About BoysEdgar Guest - About Boys
Work rating: Low


Show me the boy who never threw             A stone at someone`s cat;           Or never hurled a snowball swift             At someone`s high silk hat.           Who never ran away from school,             To seek the swimming hole;           Or slyly from a neighbor`s yard             Green apples never stole.           Show me the boy who never broke             A pane of window glass;           Who never disobeyed the sign             That says: "Keep off the grass."           Who never did a thousand things,             That grieve us sore to tell;           And I`ll show you a little boy             Who must be far from well.
