I remember one June evening

under the tall pine tree you told me:

"I want to make something

worthwhile of my life,

and the good Lord with strokes of fire

one day put life's real purpose

in your blue eyes

which makes men happy

among the Papuan or the Sioux

I don't know where, to proclaim

about the Lord, your friend
