The Strong Man That Found His Heart Of Gold

The Strong Man 
That Found His Heart Of Gold

Strong-Man, Kind-Man would never hesitate to offer up his skills for a day
But his so-called friends would always hesitate to offer him his rightful pay
Tired was he from all this work and toil
His heart had stretched and his thoughts began to boil
He yearned to be free from hands so worn and deeply soiled
What about me ? He would say,
Who will help me when my day is done ?
I am no longer having any fun
As love would have it
Along came a new friend......a true friend
Offering to help him for a change
At first the Strong-Man thought this was a little strange
But soon his restrictive walls came tumbling down
Now he could finally have a good look around
And he was amazed at what he'd found
He realized that he was so busy helping others
That he had forgotten to help himself
Overwhelmed with emotion......his tears began to flow
It was in me all along thought the man that was so strong
He had finally found the buried treasure he was searching for
It was in him all along
He found that his heart was made of gold
But now the Strong-Man was very old
So from that day forth he loved and helped himself more than ever before
And he never thought twice to close the door to his so-called friends
But when they came-a-calling for help
He would simple say:
"My intensions are good and I would certainly help you if I could
But I have my own dreams that have not yet come true. So I am sorry
that, this time, I can not help you"
