The Love of a Good Woman

The brave seemed ferocious to many
He wore a scowl that fended them off
Unfriendly and unapproachable
Until the right woman discovered him

She tamed him into a new man
Protective sure, but there was a loving side now
The neighbors were not fearing his wigwam fire
Especially after he became a new daddy

He was a real person after that
Approachable and friendly
Thanks to the love of a good woman
And a handsome young son
