A Good Man

This is a poem I wrote for my teacher, David Truman, when I first met him, 6 years ago. He taught me to love, to be myself, and to see the goodness in others. Thank you, David. Forever, I am much obliged to you.
To David Truman
I know a man
who makes flowers grow,
whose hands create warmth
even in snow.
He works in the garden,
planting young seeds
and with gentle caring
he dresses and feeds.
I know a man
whose music is sweet,
he brings joy to my heart
and dance to my feet.
I know a man
who beats on love's drums.
I've heard his song
and I have come.
I know a man
too lovely for me,
but he’s patient and gentle
so our friendship can be.
I love a man
and I'm glad that I do.
I love a good man
and that good man is you.
