William "Billy" Lee Poem by michael Smajda

William "Billy" Lee



Oh, Billy Lee!Oh, Billy Lee!
How did you ever come to be
Loyal, trusting, faithful slave,
Personal assistant and valet
To General Washington without say?

So devoted to this awesome chore
To him in peace and years of war,
What better reward could he instill
Then included in his final will,
Grant you freedom with stroke of a quill.
