My First Love


             His hands were rough and arms were

             strong as he reached to help me, he was

             the first man

             I loved

             I first walked then ran

             trying to keep up
             never slumped down he always said, “keep


             your head up”
             he having the wisdom I thirsted for

             frequently he filled my cup

             consistently he shared with me


             his hands were rough and arms were

             strong as he reached to help me

             he was the first man I trusted

             as life shifted gears he remained clutch
             never too far

             like the north star

             always giving me direction
