Any Man of Mine
He rarely laughs after he belches
On promises made he never welshes
Strong and confident as can be
He still finds time to think of me
Knows I like my ice to the brim
Doesn’t see me as less than him
His hands are tender with my son
No voices raised, no plan to run
Gray hair, blue eyes, brown or green
What’s important is he can’t be mean
Knows I’m not your average chick
Tells it straight, shoots from the hip
When girls walk by, he holds me tighter
He’s the match, I’m the lighter
Two peas in a pod and room for three
His favorite words? “our family”
Don’t care if he’s poor or rollin in dough
He’s perfectly fine with taking it slow
After all these excuses I still want a man
Who’ll love me the way that I honestly am
So Universe, here is my plea for tonight
Find me the man that is perfectly right
I’ll turn all the others away with a glance
I’ll outwait each paltry attempt at romance

I said these same things many times after my 2nd ex-husband vanished. I decided to take the bull by the horns and enroll in domestic violence counseling and get whatever was in me to choose scum out of me. I guess it worked since my husband is exactly like the man you describe.
It will happen to you too cuz you ROCK!!
