Cub Scout Poem

This poem was written by my grandfather who was an adult leader. Even though this isn't about venturing as older scouts it is our duty to help guide and show a Christlike example to the younger scouts. I know that a few of us are involved or have siblings in cub scouting. So pass it on.

Blue and Gold

We give thanks to mothers of the den

Who give of themselves time and again

Woman who teach the boys

Who overcome all the noise of a bunch of children on the run

Resembling thunder and lightening all in one

Though they are helped it’s true

We must give our boys their due

Here’s to the crafts they learn

Here’s to the badges they earn

May they remember as they grow old

They once stood proud as the boys of blue and gold

God bless them one and all

Look after them an as they grow tall

God I only hope and pray you bless them night and day

That they may grow to see

A world in peace as it should be
