NOW, boys, just a moment! you've all had your say While enjoying yourselves in so pleasant a way; We've toasted our sweethearts, our friends, and our wives; We've toasted each other, wishing all merry lives-- Here's to one in a million, the dearest, the best, Like the sun in the heavens, she outshines the rest! Don't frown when I tell you this toast beats all others, But drink one more toast, boys, a toast to "Our Mothers!" | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SONG OF KAREN, THE DANCING CHILD by KATHERINE MANSFIELD I MAY, I MIGHT, I MUST by MARIANNE MOORE WORDS IN A CERTAIN APPROPRIATE MODE by HAYDEN CARRUTH BATTLE OF BRITAIN by CECIL DAY LEWIS THE FEAST OF LIGHTS by EMMA LAZARUS THE PICTURE (VENUS RECLINING) by EZRA POUND MIDSUMMER FROST (2) by ISAAC ROSENBERG TO A LADY WHO HAD OFFERED HIM A WREATH OF LAUREL by GEORGE SANTAYANA |
