You said it well, what you like and what you can do without, Author. And I must admit, I pretty much agree with you. I don't want a man who thinks about his needs, his wants, and himself all the time. That was my last boyfriend. The man was so narcissistic he could have drowned in a quarter inch puddle. ;)
Nice write, very poetic...
Susan :)

Well, I guess it never hurts to read and try to find out what women like in a man. But then I'd just have to sit and ask myself, do all women like the same things, or would I have to spend years compiling a go-to list . . . LOL. Thanks for sharing.

    Well there are few who want only Drop-dead gorgeous and other who want a multi-m






























































    Some women want movie-star handsome and some was a multi-millionaire but most wanted to clone my choice. However one girl said she settle for "not a lying piece of scum." If you looking I don't think you'd have a problem.

This was a good poem about what you look for in a man. It is a good list of qualities. I would settle for "not a lying piece of scum." Anyway, thank you for sharing your poem here, and best wishes to you.

This poem, My Man for All Seasons, has all the good stuff and none of the bad. He's clutch, goes Dutch, and is such a go-go golly, jolly good fellow.............................................................

This is a clever and delightful read that made me smile at the thoughts of such a perfect man. I especially liked your presentation with a picture that paired well with your poetic descriptions of Mr. Right. Well done. Best wishes in the contest.

Any man that's all this would certainly get my vote. On the other hand, I guess perfection might get a little boring. He'd have to be a little simple too, otherwise he might figure out that I'm not all that either!

    Thanks for a great review. He could have some imperfections and still have most of that. It isn't all about looks. I should have said something about not expecting perfections in others. No ones perfect.

Spot-on. Just my kind of guy. Do I have your permission to submit this clever ad to a single's magazine? Alternatively, if you find this guy, clone him and save me a copy. Cheers!

Unfortunately, not sure the "perfect" man exists especially in this day and age.

These would be admirable traits to possess.

A man should always treat a lady with decency and respect. Goes a long way.

    Thank you Brett. I realize there are no perfect men or women either but some of those characteristic would be nice. Decency and respect are traits we'd settle for. They do go a long way.

I hear you. These are good solid qualities to like in your man. This seems to be a poem. And that fine, the contest says you can write a poem or prose. I think you have this switched to the poetry section by Tom, though.
As prose require grammatical rules, that poetry (and this) does not follow.

I won't do it, but other may hold it against you.

    I paid to play and entered in the contest. The only other entry was a poem as well. I wouldn't have any idea how to switch it to poetry so I just assumed either should be entered the on the same contest site. Maybe whoever started this contest set it up wrong.

He sounds like a great guy! He's got all the qualities anyone would like and you captured them in a lovely poem. Nice structure and rhyming - clear and concise. Good luck in your contest - you should do well.

p.s. - When you find him, could you forward his phone number :-)
