The Rotary Balita no. 709 (November 20, 1952)
Once I was "IT" - in Rotary, With whom all lesser heads agree, My slightest wish, supreme my sway. Respected, honored and salaamed, An Important Person - not a lamb. My word was law, none dare gainsay I was a man of high intent, A Most Respected President. Time marches on, another day, Another "Pres." now holds the sway. Now no one knows just who I be, No one seems to recognize me. Among those present, I now sit And think of the time when I was "IT" Oh, woe is me! What sad descent! I'm only a Past President! - Portland Spokes
