Dolly Madison is her Name

She developed a keen appreciation
For hotdogs, revered in the nation
Eaten during July 4th celebration

Fried chicken a close second of her faves
Eaten during veterans’ day near the graves
Of Civil War masters, who used to have slaves

What about ham, does Dolly eat ham too?
While working on guest list overdue
Madison might give you a clue

She will go down in history
Resourceful as a large oak tree
Of her talents we must agree

Giving her praise and acclaim
Hostess with the mostess was her aim
Dolly Madison is her name
