Like this....



Patient and steady
with all he must bear,
Ready to meet every
challenge with care,
Easy in manner,
yet solid as steel,
Strong in his faith,
refreshingly real.
Isn't afraid
to propose what is bold,
Doesn't conform
to the usual mould,
Eyes that have foresight,
for hindsight won't do,
Never backs down
when he sees what is true,
Tells it all straight,
and means it all too.
Going forward
and knowing he's right,
Even when doubted
for why he would fight,
Over and over
he makes his case clear,
Reaching to touch
the ones who won't hear.
Growing in strength
he won't be unnerved,
Ever assuring
he'll stand by his word.
Wanting the world
to join his firm stand,
Bracing for war,
but praying for peace,
Using his power
so evil will cease,
So much a leader
and worthy of trust,
Here stands a man
who will do what he must.

Ahhh, That is a bit more covert. Is that the couplet format that they refered too?
