Poem from poetry class

A MAN

A man…
Should be strict like a soldier
Gentle like zephyr
A heaven like a leafy shade tree
Protecting all he is capable of

A man…
Stand strong like a mahogany
Sturdy yet fragile inside
Never complaining over rejections
Hardly shows any emotions

A man…
Seeks higher aim for prides
Born to deal the challenges
Keeping his words
Smiling to mask his flaws

A man…
Isn’t a living expressionless machine
He is a mere human made of blood and flesh
Gifted to feel pain as well as happiness
He too needs affections
