Premium Member Famous Quotes of Abraham Lincoln
“No man has a good enough memory to be a successful liar”
There are too many hypocrites caught with their pants on fire
There is one Honest Abe fan whose words are now gone
“When you reach the end of your rope, tie a knot and hold on”

“You...

Abraham Lincoln, the president, 
Awe-inspiring American gent. 
Lead the American Civil war 
Abolishing slavery no more. 

Abraham Lincoln, the president, 
Scraggly and tall, cheeks each flaccid dent. 
Laughing, jokes were told of people’s flaws.  
Jokester, mocked how ugly he was. 

Abraham Lincoln, the president...

from where did you come
what made you Gods favorite

that you gave to his name
while others made up other god's
you worshiped the only real one

with in your heart you held a secret
and it could not...

Premium Member President Abraham Lincoln
Lately, I have been a-thinkin',
About President Abraham Lincoln,
And about the witty sayings he told,
Quotes for the ages that shall ne'er grow old!

Some I've slightly paraphrased,
And others I've left unscathed.
"No matter how much cats yowl and fight,
There always seem to be plenty of kittens alright!"

"If this...

The alarm clock sang out, my dad jumps up 
rushes me into the kitchen, today my love 
is indeed, a very special day for you, my eyes 
wide shut, as he continued, explaining civil rights
 
Cramming memories, into my little head I mean 
I'd remember...

A Letter To Dear Mr President Abraham Lincoln
When you proclaimed all slaves in the U.S.A. to be freed, it meant the total abolishment of the slavery system, I suppose.  When you issued the Emancipation Proclamation, I think what you had in mind was equality of all people, whether former slave-owners or...

Beloved, we wish you are right in what you write -
We are sworn to the truth of a rather high standard

El-Shaddai, the Mighty One, gave Father Abram his reward

Premium Member Ode To Abraham Lincoln
Imagine studying by firelight
Mastering lessons till late at night

Trudging through deep Illinois snow
No matter how cold, to school he’d go

Rising up as the best leaders do
To promoting equality, he stayed true

Debating Douglas in 1858
Defeating the incumbent on that date

Running for president to free each slave
Charting...

Premium Member The Apocrypha of Abraham
A wicked council of elders robed in white and crimson,
Sit fat atop a tower to ruminate on sin and manipulation.

Decrees from ancient tomes and texts written in history,
Declare our origins in an operant opera of consecrated mystery.

With pretty puckered lips whose sounds ring farcical pious...
