A PLEASANT CHARACTER

The heart of gold, the tongue of jokes,
All people love her when she talks
As she her words joins with a smile
Revealing great mirth in her style.

She has a jovial look when she
Listens to people you and me.
When she hears something insincere,
It shows that talk is strange and queer.

She looks as if she weighs the man
Whose conceit claims he is someone;
Her look imparts she knows him well
And if he goes on she will tell.

She shifts in speech from tears to laugh
As if she forgets her sad stuff;
She does all that with such a heart
That fills the place with pure delight.
