Comrad Poem by Jordan Legaspi

Being a man needs time
Time to be educated and to be wise
Wise for his daily life to suffice

Being a man needs time
Time to raise his family
Family with loving wife who cares everyday
Everyday that makes him strong all the way

Being a man needs time
Time to dream for his child
Child that gives him delight
Delight for a child that made him a dad

Being a man needs time
Time to risk his life for a cause
Cause unknown to a man willing to die
To die for his family loving them day by day

Being a man needs time
Time to choose between duty and principle
Principle that governs life he thought
Thought for nothing but for work and to survive

Being a man needs time
Time to say I will and to do what he can
He can for risking life saving both he love
Love that needs no identity from anybody

Being a man needs time
Time to feel the glory of life
Life that offers dedication even without-
Without reason yet because of real love
