The Original Mr Shy Guy

Used to be a shy and retiring type
Back then but this is now
Like a Super Hero I burst onto the scene
To share my extensive knowhow

People have never been able to stump me
I'm a master at solving stuff
Like Einstein's theory of relativity equation
That's easy, that really ain't tough

If I seriously decide to turn on the charm
Ladies will have a real hard time
Trying to resist, they'll be driven to infidelity
Not a problem, that's just fine

Before becoming this irresistible charmer
I was timid, retiring, and shy
If you can believe that wee tidbit my friends
Got some swampland you'd might like to buy

What's that you say, you think I'm joking
Can't imagine me retiring and shy
Just ask my Mom when you meet her in Heaven
I was the original Mr. Shy Guy

Used to be a shy and retiring type
Back then but this is now
Like a Super Hero I burst onto the scene
To share my extensive knowhow



(Mr. Tongue-in-cheek)

Speaks Volumes Date: 11/7/2022 4:01:00 PM Its funny how life unfolds Jack, looking back, many a time, those that were shy when young, find that they have a tongue, as time goes by they are no longer shy. Yet the opposite can occur, A rowdy, loud person in their tender years, can develop fears, and withdraw from the madding crowd, sighting that they have no need to be heard aloud. I like you just the way you are, and I like your poem ! Cheers from Wen Login to Reply Jack Ellison Date: 11/7/2022 6:17:00 PM There is some truth to what I write! I was not an outgoing youth! You are amazing the way you have of recognizing someone for who they really are! Bang on my Aussie lassie... of course this is a generalization!!! Thank you dear Wendy I think we have made an amazing connection... love from me in Canada to you in Aussieland xox
