Two Poems by Angel Edwards

 



Chinese Astrology

 

 

The Goat Man

 

A man born in a year of the goat

 

A true gentleman

bewitching manners

a diehard romantic

sensitive and shy

psychic

attuned to your feelings

cultured refined

he will steal your heart with romantic gifts

He will impress you

with his great taste in expensive gifts

Jewels flowers

 

if you love a man born in the year of the goat

you will envision great romance

goat man 

 

 

The Dragon man

 

A Man born in a year of the dragon

 

He is bigger than life

mesmerizing blinding

 

He will dazzle with his brilliance

sweep you off your feet

and hurl you into the stratosphere

of his creation

 

he may be famous

he will be fortunate

with a bit of gold dust

on his bejewelled heels

 

unforgettable

as a rule, unreachable

 

Dragon man


 

The Tiger man

 

a man born in a year of the tiger

 

When you go for a walk with him

you may end up

climbing a mountain

skipping under bridges

racing across a busy street

 

He may turn around wondering

Why you can't keep up with him

He may even say

"Then why did you come with me if you can't keep up?"

 

The tiger man is not chivalrous

He does not condescend

Can be romantic

if he is your lover

And he is a fairly loyal friend

 

The tiger man has no time for the faint hearted

 

But the tiger man is fascinating dynamic

An actor

performing the romantic

 

Tiger man offering a tiger lily

Attached to a stick

tiger man

 

 

The Horse Man

 

A man born in the year of the horse

 

his sense of style may be intimidating

he is elegant stylish extravagant obsessed with fashion

opinionated as to

what you should wear

 

He is a gambler

he is lucky

 

freedom and independence

so important to a man born in the year of a horse

 

he has a great sense of humour and a positive outlook on life

horse man

 

 

The Little Red Rooster Man

 

a man born in a year of the rooster

 

Irresistible

worldly

wordy

insatiable

 

entirely unable

to resist

the urge to brag

 

a collector

Fond of harems

fond of crowds

sees spirits

courts spectres

 

to be loved by a little red rooster

there's not much grander

rooster man


 

The Pig Man

 

A man born in a year of the pig

 

He is polite diplomatic

an expert at politesse

he is a humanitarian

he speaks with finesse

 

He is a poet

a painter of thoughts

He loves ideas

he loses himself

In the concept of ideas

A pig man loves theories

 

He has many good friends because he is so unselfish

 

He is an accomplished chef

He adores serving his loved ones

pig man


 

The Monkey man

 

A man born in the year of a monkey

He's the entertainer

He's the music man

the monkey Man

 

He will take

everything that you have

you will gladly give him everything that you have

Just for his smile

Just for his attention

 

He will tease you into believing that

you are his one and only

 

For the time being he will love you

 

he may break your heart

if you expect

something more

 

monkey man


 

The Wolf Man

 

A man born in a year of the dog

 

He is a wolf

He is loyal

He can be overprotective

 

He is a singer

He likes to emote

he likes to speak

He is a lone wolf

Happiest in small company

 

He is true

He will never desert you

He will never deceive you

 

a wolf man will speak his mind

 

he will share his truth

wolf man

 

 

The Snake Man

 

A man born in a year of the snake

 

He is sleek

A bit of an introvert

with an extravert soul

he fills up a room

 

commanding

attention demanding

 

self-assured

self-contained

gifted with the art of dancing

 

an attentive lover

he will not likely play the field

once he has found love

A man born in a year of the rat

 

He is gregarious

Likes to be

surrounded by people friends

over a puddle

your delicate feet

 

he brings you flowers

fine wine in vintage bottles

 

the ox may be a bit too serious

he has a heart of gold

A man born in a year of the rabbit

Hobbies for the rich peevish bored

 

Hobbies for the rich peevish bored

vacation from being an over lord

 

Hobbies for the rich peevish bore

fly out the window bar the door

 

Hobbies for the rich peevish bored

lethargy is its own reward

 

Hobbies for the rich peevish bore

breathing is a tiresome chore
