You ask in your rhyme What my reason.. and time Will show there's a heart beats true I am but a friend You will see in the end Will bring no harm to you
No one can suppose From a photo or pose What ever a person dispels T'is the inner being It's there without seeing The body's just one of it's shells
God's gift to man Was a simple plan No preference to race nor creed To live a life That is free from strife But no one his word did heed
From that great day There entered the fray A world all torn with war T'is greed and strife That's taken life And made the rich man poor
There are people out there Far better in fare Some that are glib and cool Some that take hold Of your treasure and gold And treat you like some kind of fool
T'is beauty to them ( with their mind on 'ahem') Seems more important to those They fail to see What is real beauty It's not all in the physical pose
It's the inner person There is no dispersin' It's precious as silver and gold To search someone's being And finally seeing the DNA of their soul
So onward I go With a new thought or so I treasure this life that is mine I'm happy and free where at present I be But only in soul and in mind
Should I find the right person Thro' poems and versin' And the rest of my life be sublime To cherish and hold A love that is gold And be happy till end of my time
