Once lived a fellow Hubert Stan
Almost as good as any man.
With body strong and mind that's keen
A gift of both that's rarely seen.

Now Hubert's very strong and wry
His arms are lean but very spry
And none can best his shoulder strength
Nor force his hand to tables brink.

And many men from foreign land
Do come to best that Hubert Stan.
But none can force his hand on down
To touch the desk with jarring pound.

And people gather close and leer
At Hubert skills and give a cheer.
For Huberts mighty grip won't slack
His eerie strength their arms do wrack.

Then time arrived when Brynhilde came
To town to food and goods now claim.
At center crowd she husband spies
As man does show his strength so wry.

A bulky fellow Hubert slings
And brute to ground is quickly flinged.
Then people cheer for Huberts feat
When seeing giant man he beat.

And Brynhilde starts to wind her way
To husband dear to have her say.
Once reaching table silence fell
On all who next to Hubert dwell.

Then reaching back she grabs a boy
Who bears a face that's very coy.
He looks like little Hubert Stan
Though next to mother boy does stand.

"The boy does want to join along
With father dear whose very strong
And play the game he saw you win
When down to ground the man you send."

So Hubert grins and nods his head
And readies hand to hold its stead.
The boy did join with biggest grin
Prepared to try and Hubert send

To ground with mighty heaving toss
Thus gaining win by causing loss.
Then start is shouted loud with cry
To win the match the boy does strive.

He grunts and cries and makes his plans
To cheat by using both his hands.
But Huberts arm is stout and still
No matter strength of child's will.

And boys about to lose his fight
Till father makes the call that's right.
By giving way to childish hope
When down he let his hand be smote.

The crowd did cheer and pat his hair
He won his challenge true and fair.
Then after day of great delight
Was slumber child's fated plight.

So Huberts kisses head of babe
When child in arms of Huberts laid.
And takes his family back to home
Where three now dwell in forest lone.
