Our President doesn't take a salary. He's already made all the money he needs and doesn't even really need the aggravation. He did it because he saw the need for his abilities to save OUR REPUBLIC.

Back at ya, pretty-red, for doing the research that I that I didn't even think to do. Never knew the context before, Paid me back with interest. Thank you!
You're way too kind. I'm a life-long voracious reader and don't remember when I started appreciating poetry, but have also been writing it here and there since I was knee-high. When I discovered blank verse around the Beat era, it really opened up a vast world as it took a whole bunch of the sing-song out of it.
Thank you for the great link. Do you know Kipling's "If"?
never had seen / read this. Fantastic poem. . . for someone who does not "do" them.
Also, voracious reader. Since retirement in 2013 can finally read all the many classics I never could in college or thereafter having a family etc. Spend hours reading every day, when I can. I have piles of books sitting around waiting on . . . me.

That couldn't be done, and he did it."

WOW! Hey Nealstar. That is twice in one day you forced me to learn a bit more. SO. Thanks again.
You, the man.

Really a great reading of E Guest's poem. I sent it out to others. Your good suggestion expands outwardly from your light. . .
and I do not "do" poems!
