Manhood
Takes more than combat gear to make a man
Takes more than a license for a gun
Confront your enemies, avoid them when you can
A Gentleman wil walk but never run
Modesty, propriety can lead to notoriety
You could end up as the only one
Gentleness, sobriety are rare in this society
At night a candle's brighter than the sun
If, "Manners maketh man" as someone said
Then he's the hero of the day
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
Be yourself no matter what they say
Takes more than a license for a gun
Confront your enemies, avoid them when you can
A Gentleman wil walk but never run
Modesty, propriety can lead to notoriety
You could end up as the only one
Gentleness, sobriety are rare in this society
At night a candle's brighter than the sun
If, "Manners maketh man" as someone said
Then he's the hero of the day
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
Be yourself no matter what they say

What a cool poem! And great rhyming, too--and I couldn't agree more with the message!
