In every union, there’s a better half;
And, in acknowledgement, no need to laugh.
But I’ve a question few will ever do;
That is: what is the better half of you?
You must admit the question is quite fair;
Which side of you would you most like to share?
Okay, that is your good side, but, agree—
Is that the side of you most people see?
Of course, we’re looking for the “better” side;
For all we know, the side you choose to hide.
Let’s hope that’s not the side we ask about;
We hope it would be what you like to tout.
We also hope, when all is said and done,
It’s evident you really do have one!
