The Strength of a Man

A Poem

Etienne J. Sarfelli
The Strength of a man

shows in the love he has for others

He dotes on his spouse and his children

He appreciates his parents for all they have given him

he is a good friend to everyone

fair and decent and honest

he has integrity

and is God loving

he works hard at everything he does

he depends on his spouse

but not to be his footstool

for he knows she is his best friend

and his equal

Though his arms are strong and safe and inviting

the strength of a man is not measured

by the weight he carries in them

but rather by the lightness in his heart.
