Recruits Then and Now

We were teens just outta school
Did we really know what was the plan
Some did I suppose and weren’t  a fool
When we fronted with suitcase in hand

What is your first memory on the day
Standing in a group and waiting
Who to talk to and what to say
But there was always time for bonding

There’s a lot between then and now
And some of us have passed on
In what life’s lottery would allow
But memories linger and are never gone

When we gather together now
A group looking older and wiser still
We deserve to take a bow
A Course or Troop knowing the drill.
