He has a most befitting role
(Do not confuse it with beef-eating).
He’s a “connector” - Julian Rawle,
That’s what he does through trips and meetings.
Connecting people overseas
By means of underwater cables.
And every cabled person sees
The gains that Julian’s work enables.
When new horizons open up,
He promptly jumps on the occasion.
And there you are – a British chap
Has now become a real Asian.
He’s moved – where life is bright and loud,
With lots of elephants and rickshaws.
Yet, he remains innately proud
Of his “unmovable” convictions.
Whatever else may lie ahead,
Connecting is his life-long calling.
Though Nokia is kind of dead,
Its motto is alive and “rawling”!
