I owe George Washington Carver
I would not want to live in a world
without peanut butter
I hope that he knows this
He is in my nightly prayers
Richard Nixon could not tell the truth
George Washington could not tell a lie
Donald Trump can not tell the difference
He just wants to torture a spy!
Our Congress George Washington cannot save
Honest Abe's rolling over in his grave
So many lies, such deceit
It's well past time to unseat
Those Law-fakers ~ Hold the fire to their feet
George Washington Carver's statue turned red
So embarrassed, Old George wished he were dead
A mob stripped him down
Laughs heard all around
Where his nuts go, they found peanuts instead
peanut
tasty times
in breads, coffee and cakes
hundreds of uses for this crop
I thank God for George Washington Carver
he invented peanut butter
a peanut connoisseur
Georgia farmer
peanut
We were staying at a Boston inn in 1773,
just good ol’ George Washington and me.
And he said, "I'm not telling you to lie,
but ~ if Martha comes by ~
tell her you have no idea where I could be."
George Washington said," It
is better to offer no excuse
than a bad one."
What excuse?
I don't have an excuse.
If I did, it wouldn't
sound good.
It's better to say nothing.
But that's not an excuse.
My excuse is...
So, you never told a lie the spotted toad said to the frog.
George Washington frog laughed and rolled off the fallen log.
Whoever told you that? He said, is lying about me.
So, said the toad, you also never chopped down a cherry tree?
George Washington was the first President that we had.
When we see his picture on the one dollar bill, it makes us glad.
He refused to be a king and he was our President twice.
He was one of our best Presidents and that was pretty nice.
Form:
'Tis well-documented that George Washington had issues with his choppers.
'Tis also well-known that he was not prone to fabricating whoppers.
So it comes as no surprise and can be truly said of our first President,
That truer words were never spoken thru falser teeth by this honorable gent!
George Washington could not tell a lie
"Honest Abe" was too honest to die
Donald Trump ad-libs
Incredible fibs
Leaving schoolchildren to wonder why
Our POTUS is really a jerk
His tweets are a childish smug smirk
To Trump's lasting shame
His management's lame
Its teamwork that makes the team work!
Not Alexander, not Caesar, not Napoleon
None of the warring butchers
Can measure up to him
Who could have been but didn't want to be a king
Who didn't allow himself to be a god
Who running far ahead of all humankind
Grabbed the future
And brought it back
Like an ordinary apple
To put on the table of a new nation
"Associate yourself with men of good quality if you esteem your reputation!"
This sage advice was offered by George Washington, the father of our nation!
'Tis but one of many wise adages to us he did bequeath.
Can be said that truer words were never spoken through falser teeth!

There are many things I will miss
All about elementary time
One of them is my mom's kiss
But I've had quite a fun time
We have had lots to learn
Some about George Washington
And we even had a pet fern
But don't forget the multiplication
Kids have had class together
Never once the class split
We might not be together forever
But now we'll be quite a hit

Out of all of the presidents, George Washington was one of the best.
When he became president, the USA was truly blessed.
They offered to make him king but he rejected it.
Then they offered to make him president and he accepted it.
Washington was a great leader who filled people's hearts with jubilation.
I wish I could travel to the past to see his inaugurations.
Davy Crockett
Never had any pocket
So he had his gun to show
He used it to get a deer, Doe
George Washington
Brave the water of Ocean
To get to our shore
To make our countries core
Bruce Lee
Was a Kung Fu mystery
He trained others in a row
He challenged the times to grow
Queen Elizabeth
Takes our breath
With all her letter list
She leads with an iron fist
I leave today’s blessing in George Washington Carver’s hands
After all he said it best…
so in Mr. Carver’s words:
May we all blessed to understand
“How far we go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant of the weak and the strong. Because someday in life you will have been all of these.”
Black loyalist
One time slave of George Washington
Fighting with the British against rotten Yankees
3000 blacks went with us and came with us
In the States now
Black folks but seeming there now just left to rot
But cherished now our black loyalists in England
Part of us
Last night I dreamt a dreary dream
Beyond the clashing rocks
I saw a dead man win a fight
And I think that man was I
Peanut butter
on waffles
on pancakes
on crackers
Thank you George Washington Carver!
Peanut butter
on a spoon
as a snack, quick and tasty.
Peanut butter
on bread
on graham crackers
on biscuits
Thank you George Washington Carver!
Peanut butter
with Miracle Whip
and Lettuce as a sandwich.
Peanut butter pie
Peanut butter brownies
Peanut butter just being peanut butter.
Thank you George Washington Carver!

For Presidents Day

To the director of research
Operation search I think seen her in church
It's God's way
To show men the way
God said its not right for man to be alone
So God sent a Spirit of sleep over Adam
And Adam fell into a deep sleep
God took his rib out
God took his lonliness and rip it out
They say the fruit of knowledge was an apple
Now this is a coincidence
George Washington cut down the same tree
I think every Son of God should cut down one
Powdered wig was musty
Curls petrified and crusty
Mothballs smell much better
Especially in August weather.
George put it on his head anyway
Not wanting to disappoint his mother today
Rode on the float and waved to the crowd
Showing out with a hoppy dance, proudly and loud
That’s George Washington! His parents yelled.
Knowing full well that he always excelled.
Helicopter Mom and Motorcycle dad.
Still they raised a truly wonderful lad.
George Washington Duck got his name from his patriotic mother.
She dressed him in red, white, and blue, just like his brother.
He was given a cherry tree and a hatchet when he turned ten.
“Look at me Mama!” He yelled with a happy grin.
Chopping down a cherry tree is more work than he thought.
Because this was a young healthy sapling, not a bit of rot.
His mama gave him a chain saw, and he was in his glory.
Of course, it completely changed the age-old story.
A little question for the U.S. Mint, how do you decide which President to print?
Which Presidential portrait fits best on the money?
Why did you put President Jackson's face on the $20?
If Abraham Lincoln was our best President, why is
he only on the $5's that we've spent?
It's well known that George Washington slept everywhere,
so perhaps a lower denomination was morally fair.
A chance for a little historical reflection, please explain
this currency connection?
New Jersey has a special tree,
A sturdy, mammoth oak,
Beneath whose shade George Washington
And Lafayette once spoke.
The tree was there before, from Spain,
Columbus started out.
The experts say 600 years
Might be its age (about).
Alas, the tree's demise is near.
It's dying and, though faved
By everyone who knows it,
It's too rotten to be saved.
For now, they're just removing limbs;
Next year it will be felled
But think of all the history
That mighty trunk beheld.
