Gentle Men in their Role as Mothers: Quest for Identity Protection

Gentle Men as Mothers :Quest for Identity Protection.

Gentle he was with them, male and female -
His brothers and sisters from the start...
No giant in disposition, his tender thoughts
Spoke volumes to both men and women-
All of us need words that nurture hearts to heal
Like a nursing mother with her children,
His position did not forbid tones of comfort-
Well meant words from from men's careful hearts
Upbuild to teach, with confidence, not might.
No two -face approach which beats himself.
The feminine one, flesh of man's flesh safe in mind-heart.

No need to blow forbidden kisses
to false goddesses passing by...


The Apostle Paul: his motherly qualities. 1Thessalonians 2:7,8
(The "feminine" qualities in men, are drawn to the feminine qualities in women-
He is a Man who can empathize with his "complement." There is no need to be harsh. 
God, as Supreme Authority, is the same. James 5:11

This is a very unexpected write, to me, in the sense I haven't read many with this focus. I am glad that you did and that I found it to read. It's a thinker and I'm a 'concurrer' with its pov and wisdom. 9th line down has 'from' twice. Truly enjoyed your poem. Poetry hugs ... CayCay
