Notes About The Poem

Presidents Day - the Couplet Style

~President's Day~
(Rhyming couplet)


Today in the USA we honor two great men 
They both did wonderful deeds for our country, Amen. 

George Washington, is our founder father, 
Lincoln abolished slavery among brother. 

These two great men had very good intentions, 
They gave their all and meant to relieve tensions. 

They both believed in their hearts what was best, 
And fought for what was right and passed their test. 

In my heart I do really admire these two great men, 
They believed in something and acted on that back then. 

History praises and sees them as heroes today, 
They were great men, and get my respect in  every way.
