"Washington Crossing the Delaware" is a sonnet that was written in 1936 by David Shulman.
The title and subject of the poem refer to the scene in the 1851 painting Washington Crossing the Delaware by Emanuel Gottlieb Leutze.
O Silent night shows war ace danger!
Redcoats warn slow his hint engage.
George can't lose war with's hands in; He's astern – so go alight, crew, and win!
