Rotary Minute

Rotary Minute

 

Good morning and thank-you

Fellow Rotarians and guests

Today’s Rotary Minute

Will highlight the best.

 

The best in each profession

With high ethics and morals 

The movers and the shakers

Who put service above laurels

 

I’m referring of course, to Membership

And in that, Sunrisers shine

Our roster is as diverse

As Boyce’s cellar of wine.

 

Sylvie links tele-health care

Jeff’s bio research is renowned

Dawn salutes the morning sun

And Gerry is the last to let us down. 

 

Sean supports his fellow veterans

Shannon’s clinic helps the concussed

Mick rules the airwaves for charity

And Kris brings in big donor bucks

 

Julie keeps our feet pain free

Amanda provides a safe haven

David cares for Finnish elders

And Giorgio’s a real estate maven

 

Admirable vocations to be sure

We even welcome retirees 

But together our common mission

Is to serve the community.

 

So that my fellow Sunrisers

Is this morning’s Rotary minute

Today’s lesson? Our membership rocks

Cuz of all the Sunrisers in it!
