A Camp MASH Inspired poem...
We drink deep of cold water, wind colored threads into circles, the knots tied tight to hold 'til next year.
We run barefoot in the wet grass, the night breeze on our faces, the smoke of fireworks dizzying our heads.
The day's sweet sweat and sunscreen leave sticky dew in the cabin lights. The sand and pebbles in our shoes tumble out on the porches.
The real sweetness of the day is when aching ankles cross and gather in the dark to talk and laugh and be whole people together.
GOOOOOOODNIGHT CAMP M.A.S.H.!
