Hero Of His Life

Hero Of His Life

He's the pilot for his ship
She's the dock in shelter lee
He's the islet quay airstrip
She's the rock by rough sea

He's the actor in his play
She's the theme of the fable
He's the factor in each way
She's the dream brand label

He's the ruler for his fate
She's the dove icon of peace
He's the dueler absent hate
She's the love since surcease

He's the idol from his yen
She's the lure rousing desire
He's the tidal wave for Zen
She's the cure for sharp ire

He's the teller of his tale
She's the art as to treasure
He's the seller for the sale
She's the heart of pleasure

He's the hero with his life
She's the wise Rosetta stone
He's the Nero of fret strife
She's the guise freely grown
