A Wandering Scout

Overwhelmed rover
Yet I am not anywhere
Some days will be there

Though I am somewhere
Fighting thorns to discover
That thrones be conquer

Premium Member There Once Was a Girl Scout

There once was a girl scout named Daisy
She was just a little bit crazy
She ate magnets for lunch
They went down in a bunch
Luckily she was not at all lazy

no wonder you are the favorite flower of girl scouts

Premium Member black ant scout finds my sugar

Today a black ant ran out of my C and H sugar bag
She was old, determined, mission-minded, a real hag
Trailing my sugar back to her well-attended ant nest
Ultimate scout, showing the way to my bag to the rest.

A tenderhearted lad from Schenectady Gave his elbow to an elderly lady Helping her across the street, While never missing a beat Leaves her happy in a better spot shady.

Premium Member The Grouch and the Girl Scout

Charming child, your apple cheeks
give an appearance which bespeaks
of girlish innocence.
I have ten dollars and ten cents -
Now that you have gained my trust,
do with me what you must.
Sell me cookies, 'lil booger,
and kill me with loads of sugar.

Boy Scout Camp

I remember waking up  
To the sudden sense of fear
My camping bag was packed
I could sense what was near
The 3 hour drive 
Was a bit of drag
Where I would spend 5 nights
Saluting the flag
I was nervous at first
Didn’t think it was fair
But then I realized
I was under their care
And I felt safe

Boy Scout

I cry at Chain Bridge
in my third year as a tenderfoot.
It's the same thing,
when father takes his time
showing up and the earth
gapes all the way to chaos.
It's when the money runs out
and the business fails.
The scouts all laugh
as they stand near their
neat packs with all their
plans piled beside them.
I am 13 in the dangerous
age of sissies. 
I wonder what 
the crying does.

Premium Member Rather Chewy a Girl Scout

Rather chewy a Girl Scout
  cookie, laden
with coconut and chocolate
    nipped, directly
from the fridge
      chipped teeth
would not be delicious
so either wait for a Girl Scout
  cookie, to thaw
or oh dear me
    and
  bless her heart
microwave the Girl Scout
    treat, add
wholesome milk
  or
diet coke, with bits
    of ice, suffice
it to say
a Girl Scout’s
  rather nice

A Mean Scout

He was a Mean Scout,
This showing with a pout, 
His Upper Lip and The Lower out:
Just finer than a pig’s snout!

He was a Coarse Scout,
Readiness showing for a bout, 
With knees at the mercy of gout;
An eagerness to a rival rout!

But should a well-groomed scout 
The slogans of The Rash tout;
An integrity leave in doubt;
Shoulders rub with a lout…

Sacrosanct rules of scout
Flippantly flout?

Scout To Kill a Mockingbird

Dresses, bows, make-up, this is who
I am not, don’t put me
In a dress
I’ll give you an insight of my life, I have a neighbor who
We call Boo
My brother Jem, who is older
Believes he is bolder
Atticus we call him, never dad
He never says we couldn’t, but I don’t want him to get mad
There is a boy name Dill
He comes every summer, to his aunts
He can be a bit of a pill
Together we act like mice
Sneaking around
But a price
We have to pay
To see another day

Drive Scout

Here's a made up story I'll shout...



There once was a spot on a globe.
Enormous it was so old.
Keen eye this darkening hole.
And around it goes.
Where it appears no one knows,
When it comes and it silently goes.

There once was a spot on a globe.
Man's ego said he should know.
Concentric in form and glow,
The peak is shown in a rainbow.

There once was a spot on a globe.
Kept watch over time as it flowed.
Assume your direction to know....
Where in a sphere that is.

Premium Member Boy Scout

He raced confidently forward.
The adults seemed indifferent.
I had tripped and the hard fall 
knocked me unconscious.

He turned me over and grabbed 
the belt around my waist.
With man-strength he lifted me, 
forcing air into my lungs.

I stood, wiping dirt from my face 
and dusting off my clothing. 
I dabbed a few bleeding scratches
And shoved my hair behind my ears.

The adults went about the chores 
they’d been performing.

I was seven. He was twelve.
My hero. My brother.
