There Is More To A Man Poem by Francis Duggan

There is more to a man than his social rank
Due to his material assets and legal tender in a bank
Or the clothes he does wear or the size of his home or his car
Though up the social ranking such things helps one to rise far
The true worth of a man is not his money or gold
But the values that he as a person uphold
The respect of an equal to all others show
By his treatment of others the man you will know
There is far more to a man than material success
Though such achievements many does seem to impress
The one worth admiring to selfishness is not inclined
One sensitive to the feelings of others compassionate and kind
I only say here what has been said before
There is more to a man than money and social rank yes indeed far more.
