WHY THEY FOUGHT-acrostic
F ighting was a last resort
O nly rebuke from king's court
R esulting in tea in the port
O ut of nowhere heros came
U ndermining tyrant, George by name
R ising up in stout protest
F rowning on king and the rest
R efusing to ever be cowed
E ven by redcoated crowd
E very founder staked his life
D oing his best to end strife
O vercoming daunting odds
M aybe by some help of God's
O nly rebuke from king's court
R esulting in tea in the port
O ut of nowhere heros came
U ndermining tyrant, George by name
R ising up in stout protest
F rowning on king and the rest
R efusing to ever be cowed
E ven by redcoated crowd
E very founder staked his life
D oing his best to end strife
O vercoming daunting odds
M aybe by some help of God's
