A Heap o' Livin'
by
Edgar A. Guest
To
Marjorie and Buddy
this little book of verse
is affectionately
dedicated
by their Daddy
WHEN YOU KNOW A FELLOW
When you get to know a fellow, know his joys
and know his cares,
When you've come to understand him and the
burdens that he bears,
When you've learned the fight he's making and
the troubles in his way,
Then you find that he is different than you
thought him yesterday.
You find his faults are trivial and there's not so
much to blame
In the brother that you jeered at when you only
knew his name.
