A father’s ‘advice’ to his son of marrying age:
If a stylist don’t let you embarrass
as long as sweet of soul, mind of breadth
Or if a Ph.D, trust fund heiress
get assured of spiritual depth
(Not, if newly, a divorcee
or a just released parolee)
One shapely with good looks:
A compelling muse
one who adeptly cooks
doesn’t watch tv news
A woman hard for you to match
and one not too easy to catch
