THE HEART OF A GENTLEMAN: A Poem by Otoo Paul


The heart of a gentleman is like a snail
having it shell but something precious within
it acts slowly but stubbornly with persistence
until it achieves its aim, it perches not.
feeling big in the hands of a lady but fragile in
the hands of a deserving and courteous one
its powerful chambers accommodating its precious ones.

Chambers that needs no renovation
just maintenance.
beautiful inside and outside.
this heart is very difficult to earn.
the kiss of this heart awakens the sleeping beauty
the waters from this heart is like a rushing
storm with a force so strong that takes away all
distrust and mend all broken hearts.
this heart understands and appreciate the principles of love.

It knows no joy or sadness, knows no
fullness or emptiness, knows no good times or
bad times but stays with u through it all...
but when this heart is mishandled, it falls so
hard and it take the world to revive it once more.
Such is the heart of a gentleman...
