Lamb/Lion

(oh, boy, when I posted this, it totally skipped my mind to mention, this was written for a 
friend who is not associated with the Soup. But anyway, I also think the Brian here at Soup is 
another lamb of a man! lUv, Andrea)

A lamb of a man, name of Brian
just hates to hear pretty gals cryin’.
To calls of distress
from each poetess
he races with zeal of a lion.
