Two Differing Opinions

He’s a little barbaric Joey said, he does not tell me much
He was talking about our new neighbor, name of Dutch
Many said he was a so and so and a such and such
But today he helped me move a dresser and a China hutch

He is vulgar and common, another snippety neighbor said
That will not change my differing opinion of Dutch in my head
He willingly helps me when I ask.
He shares his tools, talents, and his flask.
