I'll think hard about your comment Bob. Thanks.

[@robertforrester578]

@@TheBrammy11 Nothing to think about Brother. Read some more poems for us. That's all.

[@captcrunch7304]

Brilliant! Best ever reading of this poem !

[@TheBrammy11]

Thank you kindly.

My father used to read this and other Service poems to my brother and I. I haven't heard it recited since 1957. Thank you.

[@TheBrammy11]

Thank you Cheri - your comment makes me very pleased and proud to have triggered such wonderful memories of your father.

Again I am back for another reading. So well ha'e ye done! My introduction to R. W. Service was by a supervisor in the US Forest Service. He would recite Service to us from memory. And he too did very well. He was a good friend to his crew. I for one miss him.

I like the last 4 seconds at the end, when you looked at the camera and had a smile... because you know you have done well ad well you did indeed
