    George Washington’s Birthday: Wondering
    BY BOBBI KATZ. 



    I wonder what I would have said
    if my dad asked me,
    "Son, do you know who cut down
    my pretty cherry tree?"
    I think I might have closed my eyes
    and thought a little bit
    about the herds of elephants
    I'd seen attacking it.
    I would have heard the rat-a-tat
    of woodpeckers, at least,
    or the raging roar of a charging boar
    or some such other beast!
    Perhaps a hippopotamus
    with nothing else to do
    had wandered through our garden
    and stopped to take a chew.
    We all know George said,
    "Father, I cannot tell a lie."
    Yet I can't help but wonder ...
    Did he really try?
