Chivalry

Please cease and desist from saying that Chivalry is dead, unless you knocked your cranium

My parents have raised a well mannered son ever since I was really young

People who care to notice have to ask if I practiced the gentleman’s curriculum

But like several of my fellow male counterparts we just naturally exuded a great sense of decorum

Just because we don’t cause an interruption with self praise or beating our own drums

Doesn’t mean that chivalry is nonexistent especially since you only examined the mainstream mediums

For they may not wear expensive classy business suits or dress in all white like on the lawns of Wimbledon

Chivalry is expressed in simple ways such as allowing ladies before gentlemen first upon the step of the podium

Or we forego the chance of fun instead end up being covered in blood, tears and watery sodium

What about the time we willingly give up without a second thought the front row VIP seats in the stadium

Or not to mention the many times we accompanied ladies on the long lonely far walks to the auditorium

Stop blindly believing the popular cliché for there are indeed real gentlemen who still exists in real life and not in a museum

For it is hurtful that people are so quickly to cast us off with the bad apples amongst the bunch into the crematorium

So the next time you heard someone say Chivalry is dead, please correct their ignorance with the actual facts in a friendly forum
