Lee the Optimistic Optimist

Lee the optimistic optimist invented things too He could ride a bike with less wheels than two Dogs and birds tried to go along on his adventures He invented red white and blue casual dentures. What else did he invent? My children begged me. They had heard many stories about Liberty Lee. I had grown up with him and he was a kick. He invented chocolate cake two times more than thick. He had one hundred patents by the time he was twenty. You would have thought this would have been plenty. But Lee invented all day, and sometimes into the night. He would wake up with an idea that was way out of sight. By the time he was seventy, he was a trillionaire. He had invented robots that could braid your hair. And cosmonauts who travelled in blood stream of a dog. Invented also a sweet smelling fragrance for a hog.

Gosh, he sounds fabulous! We could certainly all learn a thing or two from Lee. I'd like to learn how he made his chocolate cake! Such a positive, happy poem. I just loved it!
