I learned to trust

Aldo Gabbay 1964 (sap paulo)

Free verse
I learned to trust
My father
Because he is always
Telling me the truth
Also my father
Had made me
Many years ago
With his holy hands
And after he made me
He had placed me
Here on earth to live
Father I want to tell you
That I just love the earth
Also you have made
My friends with you holy
Hands many years ago
And placed them here
On earth
Also father I trust my friends
They never promise me
Things that they could not do
I am also very happy with
My friends
We know each other for a lifetime.
