An Ode To A Man Who I Never Saw Angry

 A man of calm, a gentle soul,

Whose anger never took its toll, 

A steady hand, a patient heart, 

A peace that set him quite apart.


Through storms of life, he stood serene, 

A beacon bright, a tranquil scene.

No fiery words, no harsh retort, 

Just quiet strength, a gentle sort.


He faced the world with grace and ease, 

A calming presence, if you please. 

No tempest raged within his breast, 

He found his peace, and was blessed. 


We watched him walk, we saw him smile, 

A man of peace, for a little while. 

And though we wonder deep inside, 

How he could bear and never hide. 


The anger that we all possess, 

He showed us strength and gentleness. 

A man of peace, a guiding light, 

A gentle soul, both day and night.
