once upon a time, there was a great man who lived in the 1800's
one who saw things differently than his predecessors
an intellectual who thought differently as well
a president who saw the Big picture with ideas so unique
a deep thinker, a little rebellious, a little radical,
one not interested in winning approval or compliments
and when we add all these admirable ingredients together
we quite frankly have a president who is rather fascinating
and most likely a master chess player as well
so when circumstances became like sparkling stars all aligned
people enslaved, war between states, a nation torn apart
when all was lost, Lincoln moves his pieces into position
he wields his mighty pen, like a brave warrior with a sword
and with a single stroke of his pen he transforms a nation
making improvements most positive and most effective
as destiny and fate would have it, a great man was in power
and as playing a game of chess, Lincoln played extremely well
