George H.W. Bush Rip


In April his wife of 73 years
Died to her soul on Earth disappear
Today George H. W. Bush’s soul opted to reunite
His body gave up on the stay alive fight
The oldest living ex-president has passed
Tomorrow in tribute flags will be at half mast
A vet in World War II, youngest fighter pilot to have flown
Shot down off Iwo Jima in skies we did not own
Rescued by a sub to a political career aspire
After serving in the oil business a career he would not tire
From this man’s political seed
A governor and president to fill the need
An incredible public servant whose deeds should impress
A President whose accomplishments we should honor more not less
To George Walker Bush now time to RIP
Your place is reserved in history
