This man is rueful,

This man was done,

This man let go, temptation had won.

This man was punished, for things of great crime,

This man left a sod to eat on a dime.

This man, crushed and torn,

This man was tired and worn.

This man, turned to a book.

This man found his place,

This man, changed his ways.

This man grew older, and wiser,

This man was not just a man, but an advisor.

This man changed, and came “home”,

This man wasn’t truly home, but forced to roam.

This man faced tough decisions,

This man was sleeping, he saw a vision.

This man looked into HIS eyes,

This man was forgiven for all his lies.

This man was left in awe,

This man looked in a heart, with no flaw.

This man had realized his true place,

This man had seen HIS face.

This man is now brave,

This man is fearless to his GRAVE.

This man is truly a MAN...
