A poem by Oliver Herford

Theodore Roosevelt

________________________________________________
Title:     Theodore Roosevelt
Author: Oliver Herford [More Titles by Herford]

The ways of Providence are odd.
If THEODORE means "The Gift of God,"
Let us give thanks, at any rate,
The Gift was not a duplicate.


Aside (To T. R)

Dear Theodore, should it give you pain
To read this Rhyme, let me explain.
If we 'exchanged' you, where on Earth
Could we find one of Equal worth?

O. H.






[The end]
