Winston Churchill

Churchill admired for his sharp wit,
 a smoker, drinker, far from fit!
his stoop, his walk, his walking stick,
World doubted if his campaign would click?

with which reduced Hitler to dust,

he fought back and emerged a star!

despised though for his attitude,
was saved by wit often when rude,

Winston Churchill

Winston
Politician, Leader, Orator, Prisoner of War

Ode To Winston Churchill

Churchill's appeal reflects a unique parentage
combining  American and British heritage.

 His wit and   charm lives on still
 Whiskey always touched his lips
 For every morning he took a sip

Never paid his overdue bill

Winston Churchill

In the foggy isle of Britannia, many men have sought
Out fortune and fame.
But one man's legacy remains, as steadfast as the walls
Of parliament, a single voice echos, thunders across historical
Reference, and it's meaning sound is crystal clear, We shall
Never surrender, it has become this man's epitaph, 
Behold the Prime Minster, Winston Churchill.
A stout figure head
