This maybe of some limited interest to a few
Who insured that Canada never became a state of the U SA ,
Who led from the front his people against the invaders ,
From the U S A ,
A man of great inelegance , articulate , a man of knowledge ,
Who sided with the British , to take on the invading army of the U S A ,
Who were intent on making Canada a part a state of the U S A ,
Chief Tecumseh united the Indian tribes stopped waring with each other ,
Gained their trust and respect , united them against the common foe ,
Sir Isaac Brock , intern could see something about the Chief that were ,
Awesome ,
The native Indians had suffered greatly at the hands of the American ,
Administrations ,
Sir Isaac Brock promised Chief Tecumseh that the Indians their own ,
Country after the defeat of the American ,
The great Chief duly delivered the support of his peoples ,
Who fault with great courage , the army of the U S A became fearful ,
Chief Tecumseh had a reputation to not being cruel to surrendered ,
Soldiers ,
He ordered his fellow Chiefs to hold their warriors back from killing prisoners of ,
Battle ,
He on hearing of his orders being ignored charge on his horse to ,
Stop what was being inflicted upon the captured American soldiers ,
Chief Tecumseh , gained both fear and the grudging respect of the Americans ,
Chief Tecumseh leadership , his generalship , led to the defeat of America ,
Though only Sir Isaak Brock is remembered by the Canadians ,
No statue of the great Chief who was Chief Tecumseh , no monuments to he ,
Yet in America , the foe , remembers the Chief with greet respect ,
Erected a monument to he , held in greet respect a former enemy ,
As is Sir Isaac Brock , has celebrating his achievement in keeping Canada ,
Free from being a state of America ,
Sadly , but probably for the best , both Sir Isaac Brock , Chief Tecumseh
Were killed before the war was won , both leading from the front ,
So neither lived to see the promises made , betrayed ,
The war of 1812 , great men remembered

1812 CHIEF TECUMSEH - ''WELLINGTON OF THE INDIANS''
Chief Tecumseh , who few I dares say have ever heard of ,Who insured that Canada never became a state of the U SA ,
Who led from the front his people against the invaders ,
From the U S A ,
A man of great inelegance , articulate , a man of knowledge ,
Who sided with the British , to take on the invading army of the U S A ,
Who were intent on making Canada a part a state of the U S A ,
Chief Tecumseh united the Indian tribes stopped waring with each other ,
Gained their trust and respect , united them against the common foe ,
Sir Isaac Brock , intern could see something about the Chief that were ,
Awesome ,
The native Indians had suffered greatly at the hands of the American ,
Administrations ,
Sir Isaac Brock promised Chief Tecumseh that the Indians their own ,
Country after the defeat of the American ,
The great Chief duly delivered the support of his peoples ,
Who fault with great courage , the army of the U S A became fearful ,
Chief Tecumseh had a reputation to not being cruel to surrendered ,
