High On My List
Punctuality's a most desirable trait
it shows consideration; no one likes to wait.
A bubbly personality's also pleasant
while a compassionate heart's, a feel-good present.
Honesty and loyalty rank high on my list
although respect and optimism can't be dismissed.
Gratitude, modesty, and humor, work as well,
attributes rather rare, as far as I can tell.
She takes the time to correct my many mistakes,
and when I'm moving too fast, she'll apply the brakes.
Always encouraging me, she makes me feel good
and consistently treats me like a true friend should.
