P.S. Turn over and see a little poem
I hope you'll like it. I never professed to be much at poetry. A poem untitled.
Whats worth while getting
Is worth while working for
I'll work and strive to make success
You [?] I love best.
I will not shirk, I will not play
Its all for our love nest.
For little fill and little will, The Kiddies we desire,
I'll work my fingers to the bone
I'll set the world on fire.
And when we four in our house of dreams,
Think back to the days of yore,
We'll giggle, smile and laugh, you'll see,
'Bout Papa Mosie's clothing Store.
Now aren't these things worth while to you
They are sweetheart, be brave
You hope and pray and patient be,
And little Moey'll slave;
By your Svakie"
