John Loving Iii Poet Rhyme

Don'T Give Up

ladies, i know men are scarce
but don't give up on men
if you fail a few times
don't give up try again

we know you maybe looking
for Cassanova or Don Juan
but if you want a faithful man
try a little less handsome

use your heart and not your eye's
and you may find a great surprise
that not all men are filled with lies
and humbleness is something wise

give your heart to wisdom
something with a plan
someone who knows how to fly
but also how to land

and when all the testing is over
and all love is proved to be true
when the preacher ask the question "Will You?"
then you can proudly say "I Do."

Ronald Bingham May 1, 2009 at 3:03 PM John that is some good advice, and don't be in too big of a hurry. Take care, Ron

Carolyn Devonshire May 1, 2009 at 2:23 PM Great words: "someone who knows how to fly but also how to land." What we "see" in others on the outside cannot compare to what is on the inside.
