1) God comes first in my life.
2) I love people
3) I'm very laid back
4) People don't need to entertain me to make me happy
5) I'm very supportive
6) I'm a good listener
7) I care about what people have to say
7) I see people as important individuals
8) I will be a prayer partner, praying for them to make it through the storm.
9) I don't expect them to be perfect
10) I love to worship
11) I have big dreams
12) I'm artistic
13) I'm more of a listener then a speaker
14) I usually don't think what people have to say is stupid or not even worth listening over.

lol, I'm only putting why someone would like me, but I'm sure there are some things about me that people wouldn't like.

Also a lifetime of crazy stuff and a long nickname. (Super A1 steak sauce ditch boy)Also I am just one of those people that are off the wall and crazy sometimes.

10.) I can recite poetry while hunting and fishing at the same time ;)
I tried that one time - I ended up bagging a deer after reciting a Richard Brautigan poem to it. I knew that guy's poetry existed for a reason! :D

Sweetest Love, I Do Not Go Sweetest love, I do not go,
For weariness of thee,
Nor in hope the world can show
A fitter love for me;
But since that I
Must die at last, 'tis best
To use myself in jest
Thus by feign'd deaths to die.

Yesternight the sun went hence,
And yet is here today;
He hath no desire nor sense,
Nor half so short a way:
Then fear not me,
But believe that I shall make
Speedier journeys, since I take
More wings and spurs than he.

O how feeble is man's power,
That if good fortune fall,
Cannot add another hour,
Nor a lost hour recall!
But come bad chance,
And we join to'it our strength,
And we teach it art and length,
Itself o'er us to'advance.

When thou sigh'st, thou sigh'st not wind,
But sigh'st my soul away;
When thou weep'st, unkindly kind,
My life's blood doth decay.
It cannot be
That thou lov'st me, as thou say'st,
If in thine my life thou waste,
That art the best of me.

Let not thy divining heart
Forethink me any ill;
Destiny may take thy part,
And may thy fears fulfil;
But think that we
Are but turn'd aside to sleep;
They who one another keep
Alive, ne'er parted be. John Donne 1573-1631 Brautigan is ok but then again I like the classics

Sonnet 116, William Shakespeare

Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments. Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove.
O no, it is an ever-fixèd mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wand'ring bark,
Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.
Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle's compass come;
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,

But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error and upon me proved,
I never writ, nor no man ever loved.

To Virgins, to Make Much of Time

Gather ye rosebuds while ye may,
Old time is still a-flying
And this same flower that smiles today
Tomorrow will be dying.

The glorious lamp of heaven, the sun,
The higher he's a-getting,
The sooner will his race be run,
And nearer he's to setting.

That age is best which is the first,
When youth and blood are warmer;
But being spent, the worse, and worst
Times still succeed the former.

Then be not coy, but use your time,
And, while ye may, go marry;
For, having lost but once your prime,
You may forever tarry.

Robert Herrick



These are two of my favorite poems, and yes I can recite them from memory.

hmm... well I love the Lord, I appreciate honesty, and even when people have told me my faults I find myself liking them more for having the guts to tell me! My mum will never be an interferring or disapproving mother-in-law, quite the opposite, you may find her annoying because she likes you so much. I'm quirky and have a pretty original vocabulary. I have absolutely no drive to advancing my own career, but will do everything in my power to get you where you want to be.

Ok I did it because I liked the poem and was joking around. Sonnet 116, William Shakespeare that is a pretty good poem and thanx for sharing it. Yes guys, poetry is a good way to get the ladies but lets be more original because the ladies will appreciate that more. The pursuit should be never ending. In my own flawed opinion,

You guys, I am dying laughing. You are too funny. Every single guy on this forum is going to start spouting poetry now.

Not only that. We are going to dance around holding a baby and a puppy in one arm, and some chocolate cake that we baked ourselves in the other, while reciting poetry and killing spiders! We will be IRRESISTABLE!!! :p

Ehhh I'm all for the baby, but maybe not the cake and poetry... that doesn't seem manly enough. :D (No offense to anyone.) And killing spiders... I could do that myself.

I recommend a bouquet of roses, a spatula for the grill, a plunger for the toilet, some fresh diapers for the kiddo and a well-earned paycheck. Nothing like a devoted breadwinner, husband and dad. :blush:
