John the painter
Stopped by today

A delightful asian man
I would say

He told me about a hike
He had just been on

I told him about Mt. Baldy
I hope he enjoys it there

He offered his hand
And I shook hands
With him

Try to Remember
Remember your fellow man
I do

They are mostly all
Just like you
Just trying to live
A good moral life
And make it through

And I try to show love
To people I meet

Whether in the marketplace
Or on the street

God bless you John my friend
Enjoy the mountains, as I do
