Well-toned body and muscles galore
He could take any opponent to the floor
His physical appearance was his female hook
You could tell by the names in his little black book
He could walk in and with just a glance
Pick or discard tight female pants
He was a hunk, oh yes indeed
That’s what made his love life succeed
But that was years ago
And times change as we all know
What once made the ladies eyes twinkle
Has now turned to flab and wrinkle
His body once was a female must
But times change as we’ve discussed
Flabby and frumpy and downright pathetic
Are we to discard or be sympathetic?
In his day there was another kind
Charming, sincere, and wit of mind
A quick thinker to some and clever to a few
He was good looking of course and always made do
He was a thinker and always sincere
Gutsy and daring like Paul Revere
Personality and individuality baited his hook
He didn’t care about having a black book
He sought to share everything with only one
A special female who loved life and a good pun
He was particular, oh yes indeed
She was a must for his life to succeed
Times would change, this he knew
Positive though that he would make do
But time makes personality and charm expand
To strengthen the vows of a wedding band
The moral here should be quite clear
Don’t be fooled by what is today and near
Open your heart wide to perceive the distance
Do it every day and with persistence
Or to put it another way
Every man in this world has his plight
Some are in it just for the fight
But it continues indefinitely both day and night
This mad race for the one who’s just right
Step into the present now and look around
And discover what this writer has found
Time strengthens a wedding vow
Don’t ask me why or how
Just look to the elderly couples of years
Those who have shared the heartache and tears
As they sit quietly rocking their chairs together
Through the storms and sunshine of love weather
Each heartbeat of his is for her
And that has made their lives together endure
Her eyes though aged are wiser than ever
She’s been through all kinds of love weather
His armor lacks shine as he passes into permanent night
But she’ll always love her rusty knight
