Poem
Born in 1874 Sir Winston Leonard Spencer-Churchill Nicknamed Winnie, with a Bulldog spirit ~ resembled my Bulldog Bill In thinking time sat on his ‘Throne’, Lord Privy Seal rang Winston’s phone Yelling his retort said, ‘Tell him I can only deal ~ with one s*** at a time’ 22nd January 2019 Contest: Educate Me with Humour - Leader Clerihew Sponsor: Andrea Dietrich 4th place Sir Winston Churchill was a British writer, military leader and statesman. Twice named prime minister of the United Kingdom, he was known for his bulldog spirit and his rousing rhetoric; he also won the Nobel Peace Prize for Literature in 1953. Churchill became the first civilian in the 20th century to be given a state funeral, which is normally reserved for kings and queens only. For three days and three nights, Churchill lay in state in 900-year-old Westminster Hall as more than 300,000 mourners filed past the casket, hewn from English oaks taken from his family estate. Such was the country’s admiration for Churchill that Queen Elizabeth II broke with monarchical tradition to attend a funeral for someone outside of the royal family. Even more unusual, the queen gave precedence to one of her subjects and arrived at the cathedral before the former prime minister’s casket. 17th November 2020 Contest Name QUAT-RO your four line Contest Sponsor Brian Strand N/A
