Little To Say

He speaks very little since this is his way
The one known to his neighbors as Little To Say
To any social grouping he does not belong
He is just a shy person and in him nothing wrong

As one of a group he will never be known
In the local pub he always drinks on his own
He does not play golf, tennis, cricket or football
Since such things do not interest him at all

In his mid twenties in the prime of his life
He does not have children, a girlfriend or he does not have a wife
The whisper of the gossips is that he is Gay
Yet he does not have a male friend shy Little To Say

The widowed semi invalid pensioner Mrs Peters of him says the best on the street
And that a better person than he is she never did meet
Her prayers were answered when for help she did pray
On Saturdays he works for a few hours in her garden without asking for pay

The wise one is never one of the noisy crowd
He or she always listening when others are talking loud
Still waters do run deep it does seem this way
And this is how it is with Little To Say.
