Worth.....?

Appreciating the men in our life.......

What is a man's life worth?

A man who cares,
gives,
loves,
shares?

And yet, is unappreciated?

A man who stands
by his wife,
through
harsh realities?

And yet, remains unappreciated?

A man who is faithful,
fun,
talented,
hardworking?

And yet, remains unappreciated?

A man who loves wholly,
gives freely,
seeks only
love in return?

And yet, remains unappreciated?

For the one who sees,
the one who knows,
will find
that with appreciation,
his worth is
immeasureable.  

His value priceless.

Very tender and loving sentiments. You obviously know how to treat a man.
(I never expect too much from women. Actually, I'd be happy if they'd just stop slapping my face.)
Great poem.

Very true, these words. One should be twice as quick to dole out appreciation as they are to give criticism. Well said.

Judy, this is a story told both ways, for a woman is the backbone to this tale as well. I see her loving her children as her man has the nerve to run away, I see her loving her sons an daughters as their fathers looks away. Priceless should be valued within the fact of those who love, and thank God I had a mother who loved me!

Great Write Judy!
