For All the Good Man Out There

A handsome and well groomed man he is Usually very neat with well combed hair A middle aged man of relative height Wearing a warm smile that demands a response Of wearing a scent I know not. He is one of the few good men remaining in the world ‘How do I know? And how sure are you that he is good?”, you ask, When you spend time with him that’s when you will realize What a treasure he is, what a gentleman he is. Lucky is she that found and keeps this treasure near her bosom. Principled is just an understatement and for lack of a better word I will use it A man of good character, integrity and honesty Quick to make amends and reconcile for a wrong turn made Thoughtful and considerate of other people feelings A listener who will listens to you whether you make sense or not Many have tried to ensnare and catch him But he is ever so careful and wary of such people Dismissing such kind politely and as humanly as possible Able to keep confidential information as it is supposed to be Treating all persons with dignity. He is an early riser and a diligent work Working till late into the night For his family to be comfortable To give what he may or may not have received To lead a better fulfilling life. Integrity and faithfulness are his core values This has kept him going almost quite literally He knows the importance of these virtues firsthand He do not entertain unfaithful people Those without integrity he abhors. “This is too good to be true”, you say But am yet to get to know about his weaknesses I can only say what I have seen and heard I know no one is perfect and he is no exception Am yet to find his imperfections though. He may or may not have hidden his imperfections Or maybe they are hard to come by Could be there was no situation to bring them out That I was able to witness And that is one of the reasons why it is an ongoing observation on my part To really understand and get to know the person
