Jim

Jim who drinks at the local pub never talks loud
Always the quiet fellow in the noisy crowd
He listens in silence whilst the others waffle away
Quiet waters run deep only true for to say
The one good at listening knowledge open to receive
And that the talkative are not good at learning one can only believe
Jim listens whilst others their own praises do sing
And are letting off verbal steam doing their own thing
He calls into the pub on his way home from work every day
Just for a few beers never for a long stay
Tall and dark haired and handsome in his early thirties in the prime of his life
With seven year old twin daughters and Kate his lovely wife
The quietest patron of the local pub Jim
And not many as wise or as knowledgeable as him.
