Research Poem

A Knight In Business 

Born in Missouri in a 

Friendly family of fourteen 

He was born a small farm boy 

And worked to keep clean

James Cash Penney

His dad made him work

For everything he needed

But that was the beginning 

Of how he succeeded 

James Cash Penney

From shoveling manure 

To a well known entrepreneur

He built a retail chain

Of stores with his name

James Cash Penney

For over a century

They've provided household goods 

All over the world 

Even in the hood

James Cash Penney

He offered education 

To all his employees

About running a business

And building seniority 

James Cash Penney

That's how he 

Gave back to his community 

And like a knight 

Greatly impacted the economy
