Idea Boy

I like a boy who appreciates ideas, not specifically the ones that he has but ones that create on open mind.
I like a boy who reads, a boy who likes more than just whats on the TV.
A boy who takes a word on his tongue, down his throat and into his lounges, the written word he breathes.
One who can digest, poems and songs sink into his chest but he too can write for himself. 

Ideas and concepts toy with his mind the answer not far from find, but he enjoys the process.
I like a boy with intelligence, where logic is a common occurrence.
I like a boy who listens. Respect for the mind of others, including his sister, mother's, maybe even his little brother's if he could talk yet.
No one is inferior.

I like a boy who can organize his thoughts. Knows which words to use when he talks.
Vocabulary is attractive. 
I like a boy who can use this knowledge to tell me the importance of a family to cry when a son's off to college.
I like a boy who thinks about his emotions and does not find them atrocious because they are then indeed precocious and there is nothing wrong with that.

I like a boy who can have deep discussions over beers and pizzas because I like a boy who simply appreciates ideas.
