For men who do good

a man is a man, i agree
this he is, this he’ll always be
sometimes tied to the instincts of his loin
brought to his knees by the yearnings of his groin
but a man is only a lover
a man is not a beast.
half man, half human
half man, half child he was and will be.
a man is a room of affection:
kind, gentle, caring and careful
a man is the sweat of his mother.
a man is a fighter
Lifter of bricks, taker of risks
a man is a heart that remembers to beat for its own
a man is the month of December:
filled with love, family and gifts
filled with a different kind of laughter
of light, music and healing
a man is the night of Christmas.
a man is not a wall lifted up so high that it hinders
a man’s voice is a depth we hide under
a man is a morning prayer
a daily devotion for peace
a vow we choose to utter
a man is an offering
we choose to give or deny ourselves
a man is a human miracle
