Doggerel monger. Really have to wonder what readers back in his day used for brains and taste.

Edgar Guest's doggerel is laughably bad, but he was rather popular in heartland America during the mid-20th century.

Edgar Guest is arguably the worst published poet of the 20th century -- everything rhymes and scans perfectly but, qualitatively, it is pure drivel below greeting-card standards.

Probably the worst widely-read American poet of the 20th century. Insipid, puerile, mawkish, and on the whole, essentially meretricious muck.
