stays strong even in times
of economic hardships
and supports his family
any way he can
A true man of steel
climbs inside rail tank cars
to sandblast their rusty innards
never complaining of the steel
splinters he plucks
from his skin each night
A true man of steel
is not afraid to learn
new skills like welding
and railcar construction
A true man of steel
will not bend the rules
when quality assurance
is on the line
A true man of steel
is self-taught
earning his education
on his own journey through life
A true man of steel
accepts the sacrifices he has
made for the betterment of others
and has no regrets
My father is a true man of steel.
