Henry Lawson

Laughing and Sneering

What though the world does me ill turns
And cares my life environ;
I’d sooner laugh with Bobbie Burns
Than sneer with titled Byron.
 
The smile has always been the best;
’Tis stronger than the frown, sirs:
And Venus smiled the waves to rest;
She didn’t sneer them down, sirs.
