Character Verses Love Poem by Meda Martha

As he seeks, this says he in his heart,
I want a girl humble,
Few words that don't hurt,
Competent in speech and deed,
To me she'll be a candle,
Light my way when in scandal.

But she says in herself,
Will i look for anything less than love?
A man to give me heart and soul,
Live in me as I live in him,
Though a scarecrow he may be,
He is the one I'll know.

Then a thought strikes his mind,
Oh, yes a beauty queen,
One the world admires,
To show in every street,
Hold tight her termite waist,
All to wonder and call me king.

She finally answers back,
One to understand my feelings,
When lost help find my way,
In weakness be my strength,
In danger be my lion,
Roars at once and all is scattered.
I want a man to love.
