Describing a Stranger

A stranger was seen 
Waiting at a bus stop
He was short in height
His hair was almost grey
The colour of his eyes blue
He had small narrow nose
With a small mustashe
That hid his lips well

He wore a black suite 
Followed by a white shirt
His tie a royal blue colour
His shoes were new black
He looked very handsome
Being physical challenged
He walked with his crutches
Now he looks forward to meet-
His girlfriend on a date

What you discribed here, Darlene, was the enthusiasm in this man going to meet his girlfriend, to whom he dressed well for, nothing else was seen, because nothing else mattered, I hope he had a pleasant evening . . . : )
