What's a Man by Michael Auguste What is a man, oh let me see... Someone who puts his wants behind And puts hers first, instead of his And much more loves what's in her mind He keeps her safe, but when she's hurt Her tears he'll kiss to ease the pain And seek her heart, embrace it close And work each day so love won't wane An upright man, no vices kept He is faithful and doesn't roam He will not cause tears to be wept His goal to be a have a happy home He craves the fragrance that she is And breathes her hair to take it in He touches her in ways that last So wonderful, it feels like sin His eyes do wander, but on her And traces her from head to toe He seeks her eyes and warm embrace And keeps love fed that it may grow Sometimes from work he'll place a call So he can see how her day is He cannot wait to hurry home To gimpse her eyes and waiting kiss They often sit and quietly talk Her voice a whisper to his ears They always hold hands as they walk Her heart is safe, no need for fears So what of masculinity Of strength, of boldness and the rest? Reserved, until there is a need For now, he'll savor just the best |

Do you suppose if he's found, he can be cloned? You really know desires of the female population well. Great work! |

"He craves the fragrance that she is And breathes her hair to take it in He touches her in ways that last So wonderful, it feels like sin" Parts of this poem feel delightfully sinful, my friend...and sweet. I admire what you're saying here, Michael, as surely you knew I would. ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |
