Kathy Fry Poet Couplet

The Making of Man

First you start with a frame that's wide and sturdy
yet strong enough to bend
then you add a cup of hope and an ounce of pride
and slowly start to blend

then a tear or two must be added
to bind his soul to him
and two cups of love are poured in slowly
to fill his heart within

then a spoonful of courage is added
with a pound of strength to hold in each hand
and a pint of patience to finish
Behold, the making of man
