Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln
 
Remember he was poor and country-bred;
     His face was lined; he walked with awkward gait.
Smart people laughed at him sometimes and said,
      “How can so very plain a man be great?”
 
Remember he was humble, used to toil.
     Strong arms he had to build a shack, a fence,
Long legs to tramp the woods, to plow the soil,
     A head chuck full of backwoods common sense.
 
Remember all he ever had he earned.
     He walked in time through stately White House doors;
But all he knew of men and life he learned
     In little backwoods cabins, country stores.
 
Remember that his eyes could light with fun;
     That wisdom, courage, set his name apart;
But when the rest is duly said and done,
     Remember that men loved him for his heart.
 
by Mildred Meigs
