we're gonna talk to the menfolk
yeah, we're gonna say how we feel
we're sure gonna draw them closer
just to make things nice and real

what's the use of a voice
if it can't be heard
we feel connected when
we're uttering words

if you're only thinking it
it isn't real
so why don't they
just tell us how they feel

loving words are the sweetest words
(the dearest a woman has ever heard)
i don't know why it just is so
some men make talk a dirty word


There must be a poem in here somewhere.

Ha! I would say they are hard wired that way but then all the wonderful men that write here at the blue buffet will probably challenge that stereotype...and with good reason.

LOL.  Please note I said SOME men, not all.  The purpose of the poem was not to bash men but to simply show the difference in how the two sexes communicate.  No offense was intended.
