Eagle Trail

I wrote this poem in the first semester of my sophomore year at college. Now that summer camp is over, this seems like a good time to post this.

Many start up the trail with you,

Young and cheery boys.

Some drop out along the way

As you continue onward.

You begin to learn more

About the woods, yourself,

And how to be a good person.



As you grow older

You must continue up the trail.

It has grown steeper, and

You find that there are not as

Many others with you now.

At last you reach the top.

Hands reach out to help you up.

You stand among your fellow Eagles,

And prepare to help the next Eagle up.
