A GOOD MAN

when he stopped 
abruptly
to pluck a snail
from the path

and placed it 
safely
on the lushest
greenest leaf

i did not think
at all
to ridicule
or laugh

for
i thought him
to be
a good man

who would 
cut down the brambles

and make safe
the path
​​​​​​
and in that very instant
I gave him 
most gladly
my heart.

A Lonely Journey

Marionette, 
Very sweet! What a little, romantic, nice heart you have. 
(Albeit, the story turns a little later as he is discovered eating escargot in his laundry closet). Kidding, I shouldn't joke during your beautiful writing, sorry! 
Loved it! 
Matthew.
