Man - An Ocean Of Love Poem by Bernedita Rosinha Pinto

A man is but an ocean of love
ask him for anything with humbleness
ask him everything with gentleness
he will always oblige;
ask him for anything with rudeness
ask him everything with harshness
he will refuse to surrender;
a woman is an epicenter of modesty
without man she is but an empty honeycomb
love fills in her like honey
only when man is that bee
replenishing her with nectar;
man begets love, woman begets life
woman on man depends to bloom
to blossom, to be that flower
and to be what she has to be;
without the ocean of love around her
she is an island of loneliness within...
all that she possesses within her
all the treasures of love that hide within her
man finds, explores and exposes;
man finds and teaches her the values of her grace
for then is a woman a mother,
and all the other dimensions to her image
are generated and promoted
by that ocean of love from a man.
