Manly Man

"Manly Men"   Manly Men are never alone We have pride and honor to help keep us company. Our strength's are many, both seen and un-seen alike. Tangible and Invisible. Manly men have no feminine side We are natural leaders and fathers We are Gentle and Kind Protective and Vigilant Nurturing and Giving. In a manly way. Manly Men sing and laugh And embrace the mornings dawn As another testament for their Love of life and wife and family. Manly Men cook and clean We feed good food and make Warm beds for all who come to stay. It is our way to give and share The honor we bear for being Manly Men. It is our way to love the day and all those we take in our care. Beware you unkind, un-noble few Our wrath we seldom show Manly men face danger And destruction we can bestow. A Manly man's embrace is wide and good His smile can rule the day. A manly man attracts good friends and loves his family. And they in turn, love him for who he is....  Their manly man. So take a look at what you see Be bold and strong and clear. A manly man has nothing to fear As long as his heart is true. Stand Up, Be heard and sing A manly mans good song..... Life is good and great and kind with a woman by his side.

Manly men don't write poetry . . . Manly men are mostly apes & louts. Manly men who pride themselves on that mostly communicate in shouts. Manly men dont use words they use fists, There is nothing romantic about Manly men. Evolution has made Manly men superfluous & they fight back with stella & rascism. Manly men frankly make me sick. Nice Poem though. <3

this is a great write i love a manly man and they are the best kind of man, do you think that guy with frosted tips that you see at the tanning bed will be all those things (lol) buton a serious note i loved this poem i thought it was very well written and had true meaning, and i took this as a good message for our youth, that being a man isn't about fighting and being cool or being strong, it's about cherishing what you do have working to protect it and striving to do whats right. loved it!
