That’s My Boss!

When people are in trouble, and all seems to be so wrong,
A man steps forth without the crowd, to be so gently strong,
and demonstrates determination, without being cross,
and you're proud to say to all around who hear you, "That's My Boss!"

He calls no attention, makes no pretense, knows just what he needs,
to bring us comfort, resolve and strength - or simply put, he leads;
Just like a pro, he'll deftly field what evil men will toss,
and they just stand in shock and awe, while the troops say, "That's My Boss!"

He's walked with us, he's worn our boots, flown with us in the skies,
a steel glance that withers, if you dare to meet those eyes,
but also, can shed healing tears, as rain on forest moss,
and that lump just will not leave your throat, as you murmur, "That's My Boss!"

So, jaded pol or hardened cynic, meet this noble man,
belittle him, if you dare, or try to best him, if you can,
for even hardest heart will change, and take up America's cause,
and you'll stand along with me, and say with feeling, "That's My Boss!"

Amy, Amy, Amy! Do I get a Finder's Fee for this? :) Hey, I found him on another thread with this wonderful poem about our wonderful President! I asked Old Sarge to repost that poem here (and at the Finest, too - gotta look out for my Finest!) for all to enjoy. I didn't know he was the author (looking at the copyright initials) at first, until reading further in that thread.

Maybe you can recruit him?????

Welcome to Amy's Place.

I was on the other thread earlier today but did not read all the posts so I missed your poem.

Thank you, Billie, for inviting Old Sarge here.

I'm proud to stand beside you and say "That's my Boss!"

What a compassionate, faithful man our President is!! What a wonderful poem you wrote to recognize that compassion.

Thank you!! I hope you will bring more of your poems to Amy's Place. You belong here! ; )

Stop by often with a poem, a joke or just to say hi, we will be happy to see you here.
