Friend - Mark Of The Outback Poem by Paul Warren

I know a man who was one with his people’s pride
Whose life was for service with thoughts of self aside
His blood flows red as the glow of the Centre’s soil
He will be remembered always for his enduring toil
For our hope and reconciliation for all Australians as his prize
More than wearing the blue remembered as being always wise
When his task is finished and a judgement called is done
As Mark of the Outback altogether he will always be as one!
