My Reputation Poem by Pleasant Dabbs

I'd like to be known for keeping my word
And for being honest, that must be assured
I'd like to be considered as a person who is fair
And for displaying to others how much my heart cares
It's important to be reputed as one that endures
And to be remembered as one who is faithful in prayer
Confidence is important, I'll show that I am sure
Of myself, of my savvy...that I'm a man of my word
That I am altruistic, that my cupboards aren't bare
That all men are my equals and that I'll always share
I hope those who know me will feel good to refer me
My door will be open and I'll always be there
