Dedicated to MJ Hollingshead


Poem Artwork

His credentials impeccable,

His tenure assured,

He comes to us by way of Harvard, Princeton & Yale,

The student first, then the teacher, both he never has failed…

 

His only flaw, he frequently falls asleep with nose in a book,

Most times he does so at home, sometimes in class,

Though his time he gives to a local soup kitchen as a cook,

He still makes time to personally cut the grass…

 

A down to earth guy,

Unlike humans, there is nothing in his past to ask of why,

Sometimes he just sits and admires the sky,

As well to combat the problems of politics he is quite sly…

 

So all in all I think I have made a good decision,

Don’t let them specs fool ya, he can see & hear with the best,

Never allow will he any in house inquisitions,

He also has a great sense of humor, frequently you will hear him jest…

It's a dog gone shame that only Americans can vote for Rufus and his cabinet would sure get my vote.

True wisdom shows in his face, practicing what he preaches, you yourself should be the undersecretary for such a suggestion.

Poor Jim (Bonnie's hubby) he asn't started to use our car safety-belt yet.
I hope that the Secretary of Educations is neutered, we donæt want a "hot head" in office.

I can see why you picked this guy, Rufie Boy, you sly devil. You're hoping he can teach your Dad a thing or two, too!
