Learning to Love St. Olaf
because it has stories 
because the Midwest breeze blows across the hill
because the winter gust is cold 
and because Oles are better than the knights
because we give rather than ask
because we are international 
we sailed from east and west 
and across the Pacific 
because the air is filled with Malt-O-Meal 
my sense melts in my mind
my hunger with my mouth
because we sing Um Ya Ya   
because everyone loves the Caff
because we check the P.O three times a day
because the purple dragon smiles in the lib
because the wind chime rings
because the Norwegian folks float
because the Vikings hum
because  we are who we are 
because home is far away
because it is time
