Rational Man
Up the diversified life's evolutionary lineage tree,
with time a unique species climbed to the canopy.
A perfect blend of functional form and wisdom,
a matchless masterpiece designed in live kingdom.
Beneath the cold cover of austere expression
flow the convivial streams of sensuous emotion,
the embracing ripples of love and empathy
spread on the shore of my soul in eternity.
When all the dreams break and hopes abort,
I seek and get the gift of all-needed support,
embark again on the journey, cross milestone,
for I know I won’t ever walk my life alone.
Behind the deceptive façade of divergent kinds
I have seen the lively portraits of beautiful minds.
Since all humane traits their acumen can scan,
the singular species created is the rational man.
