Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

Guys Can Be Shy

Who could imagine
  how many guys can be shy
Handsome six-footers in
  knots, their tongues tied

They see a pretty girl and
  go all wobbly in the knees
Their palms clammy with sweat
  their brains in deep freeze
  
Yet it's true, sure as the earth
  is round and not flat ~
That butterflies flutter
  in the coolest of cats

Andrea Dietrich January 25, 2021 at 1:51 PM WEll, I would try to talk to the "jocks" and they just ignored me in high school, so I know it was more about popularity back then. But also you are correct, SOME guys really are shyer than girls realize!! Great poem.

Darlene De Beaulieu January 25, 2021 at 11:28 AM Hello Gershon, I thought it was only girls that were shy. Learn something today. enjoy ytor day my friend. Darlene De Beaulieu January 26, 2021 at 10:01 AM Hello Gershon, I still can not get over this, guys being shy. I was very shy once. Someone would ask me my name and I would blush. Enjoy your day my friend. Gershon Wolf January 25, 2021 at 8:02 PM Glad to confirm that guys can be shy, and painfully so! Even the handsome ones. Go figure. Thanks, Darlene.
