He is a Man
He is a Man
He`s a man who braves storms of life
Who can suffer stresses of strife
In simmering shines of summer
Or in whirling winds of winter.
He`s a man who isn`t held by thorns
But to ride rugged roads is born
Meet wild winds whooping through the day
Or scramble on hills on his way.
He`s a man who lets go of blows
And beloved blessings bestows
For a slap from his closest friends
Or smacks on the back from vile men.
He`s a man who can rein anger
And hold them with a steel anchor,
With a wand of serenity
And rods of equanimity.
He`s a man who ever does rise
After a fall and moves straight-wise
With patience as a real friend
And perseverance till the end.
He`s a man who just does not wail
Whimper or wait behind the veils,
But dares and acts with a vision,
With zeal and determination.
He is a man who takes failure
As clues to mend his behaviour,
All along his way to progress,
And as stepping stone to success.
He`s a man who respects all norms
And, in need, himself outperforms
Within the bounds of honesty
And the realm of integrity.
He is a man who in himself
Believes and in his inner self,
And has the power of the will
To attain the peak of the hill.
He`s a man who does not despair,
But treads on without any scare
With eyes set on reaching his goal
Without any breach to his soul.
