Gervic's Poetic Explorations

Born a Taurean

Who among you knew I was born a Taurean?
In the glorious month of May,
Zodiac signs could be a whimsical notion.
But I believe it somehow, someway.

Taurus is the second sign in astrology.
Governing the months of mid-April to May
Represented by a bull - is it the bully?
Not at all, listen not to what they say.

Google says we have a regal quality.
We are graceful and diligent laborers.
Despite his obstinate personality,
But very dependable and good listeners.

Taureans are said to be very intelligent.
Understanding and very hardworking.
But way too lazy to be consistent.
And are imbalanced in various things.

We are known for our kindness and honesty.
To our friends and loved ones, we're great loyalists.
But what holds us back is our jealousy.
And we have run too far to be perfectionists.

There's one more thing that you need to know.
Taureans are fated to the orderly Virgos.
Their loyal best friends are the opposing Scorpios.
Even if they are often found in a ceaseless imbroglio.

There are lots of weaknesses a Taurus may possess.
But not enough to overshadow his best traits.
Take time to get to know a Taurean and you'll be impressed.
At his own great ways that none can dictate.
