Hi everyone! As you all know George Washington is entitled as our dominant in the military, and also a political leader, so I had to write a poem for this! It's called "To the excellency of George Washington" It's just been published check it out you guys. Give me your feedback.
" To his Excellency
George Washington
Sir,
I have taken the freedom to address your excellency in the enclosed poem, and entreat your acceptance, though I am not insensible of its inaccuracies. Your being appointed by Grand Continental Congress to be Generalissimo of the armies of North America, together with the fame of your virtues, excite sensations not easy to suppress. Your generosity therefore, I presume, will pardon the attempt. Wishing your Excellency all possible success in the great cause you are so generally engaged in, I am,
Your Excellency's most obedient humble servant,
Phillis Wheatly"
- August 3, 1776
