A few good men

2781

I know a few good men

Not part of the crowd

There to lend a hand

When no one is around

Standing tall

Not backing down 

Not out to pick a fight

Just getting on with their job

Doing what is right

Considering the lowly 

Answering the call

Working in the shadows 

Lifting those that fall

Closer than a brother 

Can be these merry men 

The glue to our existence 

Foundational 

True gems

Hear today 

We pass away 

In the end

Will they rise

To their surprise 

A few good men.

    These unsung heroes will always be alive in our hearts.
    "There to lend a hand

    When no one is around

    Standing tall"

    Maybe not rare, just unseen?
    Thanks for the comment.

    I'm too lazy.

    Your poem wonderfully honors the quiet heroes among us, emphasizing their integrity and selflessness. It's a touching tribute to those who make a difference without seeking recognition.

    It was to my few best friends, a tribute. You are right, un-sung, with purpose.

    Truly good men who know how to help the world out there, are aware of their capabilities and responsibilities, really enjoyed this one!
