George Washington Carver “The Plant Doctor”
An inspiring read that this was a favorite poem of George Washington Carver.
Favorite poem of George Washington Carver (January 1864—January 5, 1943):
pppEquipment
Courage must come from the soul within,
The man must furnish the will to win.
So figure it out for yourself, my lad.
You were born with all that the great have had.
With your equipment they all began.
Get hold of yourself and say, “I can”.
—Edgar Albert Guest
