The Embrace

You, who stand alone and apart from so many,
Still, with the fire burning in your belly
And this passion for Fairness
a true desire to give to someone
who may be yearning
to achieve,
You inspire me to trudge on ,
To find that higher Purpose
the Real Reason
For my existence at this point in Life,
I am thanking you for your example,
which of course,
is always the truest
measure of a Man

You have given me so much
Watching you embrace the day ,
rather than fight it
I know there must be Joy
somewhere in Duty
a sense of Delight
at the mundane,
A willingness to do the undesirable
and concentrate only on the completion,
Rather than the complaint
I see that extraordinary embrace,
And am Jealous
