You are an inspiration and a great role model. I want to be writting when I reach your age. This is really good. I also prefer rhyming poetry. It's so satisfying somehow. This is a great piece. Thank you for sharing.

Simon and Garfunkel sang about A Most Peculiar Man who was not. He killed himself because he was outside the box. Individualists help make the world go round. Fine tribute.

Jaybird,

I really, REALLY enjoyed this poem. It reminded me of a couple of very special men in my life. I couple not only picture it describing them, I could picture them reciting it. Thanks for the sweet smile you brought. Hugs-

It's so good to hear of someone who will stand his ground no matter what. Too little of that these days.

A non-forming dreamer - I like that description.

I wouldn't call him a nut, either, but someone who has the right priorities. 8-)

I loved your poem. A kind of person that anyone would love to know. He stood the moral road, no matter what the would thought. Very well done in style and verse.

This is a wonderful work, with such a lovely message. While his friends played, he searched for the deeper meanings of life.

It flows so nicely and the words you use are very descriptive jewelled purse, Judas kiss, banal play.

Very nice and entertaining to read as well.

Your friend sounds like a jewel himself. You write very eloquently of him. I usually try to tell my favorite line, but I can't because I like them all so much. Wonderful job!

And you will never get it.
I have to say this is a lovely poem. You don't even need artwork to make it attractive.
This is the description of the perfect man, isn't it? And I guess you're talking about Jesus.
Thanks for sharing.

i like the beat created in reading this poem. Written predominantly in ABAB rhyme scheme. Does this poem have religious overtones or am I barking up the wrong tree?
well written

Sometimes what we see or want to see is not how it is.
What is normal to us maybe really isn't.
Very nicely done and I love the 'send me a bag or two'.
