  • A Triolet for James Monroe, Or, My Era of Good Feelings

     

    I have a doctrine for you, Monroe—
    And I call it the Doctrine of Love.
    O, colonize my lands both high and low!
    I have a doctrine for you, Monroe:
    For ‘tis you who sets my heart aglow:
    Nary another pres but you I’m thinking of!
    I have a doctrine for you, Monroe,
    and I call it the Doctrine of Love.
