A Gentle Soul With a Strong Hand
There once was a man, strong and tall
With a heart that would never fall
He walked with a purpose, head held high
And always looked straight into the sky
He worked hard every single day
To provide for his family in every way
His hands were rough, his back was sore
But he never complained, not once, no more
He had a smile that could light up the room
And a voice that could chase away the gloom
He was a friend to all who knew him well
And his kindness would always tell
He loved his wife with all his heart
And never let anything keep them apart
His children looked up to him with pride
And he always stood by their side
There was something special about this man
A gentle soul with a strong hand
He may not have been famous or rich
But his legacy will never diminish
For he lived a life of love and grace
And left his mark on every face
He may be gone, but his memory lives on
And the world is a better place because he shone.
