A Man Alive


A Man Alive


Give me not a knight in shining armor
But a man alive
With wisdom enough to laugh
Strength enough to be gentle

A man that walks among other men
But whose steps are just his own
Not a man without fault
But, judgment enough to master his own ways
With reason enough to have understanding
Compassion in his living

A man with adventure in his heart
Alive enough to carry a flame of living in his eyes
Warmth in his voice
A grace of thought in his mind
Fulfillment in his living

Not a knight in shining armor
But....A man alive
