"Worth While Poems" has been a great source of help and inspiration to many people. The many expressions of interest and appreciation is the reason for this second volume. These poems have been sent to me from various sources. From some the authorship and ownership notice was omitted. We have tried to give proper credit and get permissions for everything, and if we have failed, we want to make correction and adjustment. Many times a worth while thought in rhyme sticks with a fellow better than in prose form. There are many worth while thoughts of encouragement and inspiration in these poems. We sent them out with the hope that they may be of real help to you and help you to help other folks. - Homer Rodeheaver - Introduction.
