Since four decades you've been to me <br /> Both Guide and Friend, <br />I fondly hope you'll always be, <br /> Right to the end; <br />And though my rhymes you rarely scan <br /> (Oh, small the blame!) <br />I joy that on this Page I can <br /> Inscribe your name. <br /><br />Robert William Service<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/to-frank-dodd/
