Service, Robert W.: Ballads of a Cheechako. V1. 7 May 2008
This was Service’s second book of verse published in 1909. All the poems concern the Yukon Gold Rush of 1896-98.
These will I sing, and if one of you linger Over my pages in the Long, Long Night, And on some lone line lay a calloused finger, Saying: "It's human-true--it hits me right"; Then will I count this loving toil well spent; Then will I dream awhile--content, content. Last stanza, To the men of the High North. |
