Politeness

Title:     Politeness
Author: Elizabeth Turner [More Titles by Turner]

Good little boys should never say,
"I will," and "Give me these";
Oh no! that never is the way,
But, "Mother, if you please."

And, "If you please," to sister Anne,
Good boys to say are ready;
And, "Yes, sir," to a gentleman,
And, "Yes, ma'am," to a lady.

[The end]
Elizabeth Turner's poem: Politeness
