My Kind of Man

My Kind of Man

A Poem by ROXANE DORSEY

What my kind of man is.......
born of blood & bones, the 
air flows through his lungs.
He's for me. The man is plum
goodness. He's my fortress,
under eyes & key. The boy
belongs to me. He can be 
gentle, he can be sweet.
Oh, my man keeps doe, but
made of more. Something
strong of mind, yeah he's
mine.  My guy is fly.
The man is of worth. 
I value him totally.

Your message describes one's partner/friend as a unique & interesting person. I like the way you use language that is traditional, along with more modern expressions. Your poem is fine the way it is, but since you describe yourself as a new writer who's learning, I will offer an idea for future writings. When you feel like using words like "gentle" & "sweet" -- these kinds of words are used so often, they don't have as much meaning anymore. So it's good to try to find a more expressive way to show this. It may be finding another more interesting word, or it could be some example to SHOW how this person is gentle & sweet . . . a real-life example, like saying he helps me with (whatever) or he touches me like (some endearing thing). Specific, unique details will make your writing more original & memorable. But you are definitely on the right track & your writing can only get better & better! Fondly, Margie

thanks for the kind review
To have a relationship that is as strong as a fortress itself, is one of the greatest things in life. :)
