New haiku
Check out the new haiku about Calvin Coolidge.
Here’s some background from The Biography Channel:
“Calvin Coolidge and his wife, Grace, were renowned animal lovers. Instead of a fruit basket or bottle of wine, a voter in Mississippi once sent them a raccoon to be enjoyed as part of their Thanksgiving dinner. The Coolidge’s promptly named her Rebecca and proceeded to take her on walks, at the end of a leash, on the White House lawn. President Coolidge was so enamoured of the raccoon that he built her a special house and visited her every day. What’s more, when the White House was being renovated and the Coolidge family had to move out for a short time, the President was so worried that Rebecca would miss them that he had a limousine sent to pick her up from the White House.”
