Notes About The Poem
I am a Scout Master Wednesday nights for a small troop that meets at my church.

Bridging Scouts

Den Mothers,
Cub Master, and others
Around a fake campfire ‘burning’ bright--
Present a Webelo with an Arrow of Light.
He’s the Pack Meeting’s special honoree this night.
Crossing the bridge, no more a Cub Scout
They know what they’re about:
Bridging Scouts!

It was a good theme to work with. I was glad I could come up with something unexpected with it.

You guessed right; in fact my small troop meets tonight at my church building. I've been a Cub Master several times, and Ass't Scout Master twice, and now a Scout Master and a Merit Badge Counselor.
