Do you know why they're called “Teddy Bears”
After Theodore Roosevelt, because Teddy cared
A captured bear, he refused to kill
A kindness remembered still
Quite “unsportsmanlike” he was heard to declare
Dinner at the White House
Theodore Roosevelt a robust, Republican president
had to Booker T. Washington a dinner invite sent.
Roosevelt was progressive for his day
and the segregated south had much to say.
Political Snakes

A snake never feels threatened,
because it has the innate ability to camouflage itself,
It blends in with it’s surroundings for self preservation.
But no matter how often it sheds its skin,
A snake remains a snake.
When they call the roll in the senate,
the senators do not know whether to answer “present” or “not guilty.”
Theodore Roosevelt
In days of old so I’m told Theodore Roosevelt did explain he had no use for the hyphen in any American name.
And now one can see how the hyphen such a tiny grammatical mark has pushed us apart.
We are all Americans who may hail from distant shores but now this is our home worth protecting and fighting for.
Do not let the hyphen define you ,where you once were is now behind you.
Let us join together one and all for we are Americans
In Spirit Haiku

So easy to call him Titch.
He's just a tiny teddy-bear.
Yet I, a grown-up man,
feel a strange affection.
Affection, yes, for something fluffy,
and all you can do is look at it,
talk to it – or should I say “him”? –
and leave it on a shelf, table, desk.
Ah, yes, so much history:
Theodore Roosevelt.
He hated the name Teddy,
but folk would call him that.
So thank you, Theodore.
I will not call you Teddy.
You hated it, I know,
so this teddy we call Titch.
