Man's Better Half

When God made man and called him good he left but one detail, Without a helper Adam's race was surely bound to fail. Not from his head or from his foot but near his heart did lift The rib by which he fashioned Eve; Adam's perfect gift. If a man climbs to the top and gains success in life, its less to do with talent, most likely its his wife. Before you go on boasting and fill your heart with pride, remember, there's a helpmate, a bestfriend, and a bride.
