At Sunday evening’s weekly all-camp gathering, the youngest camper at Pok-O-MacCready, five-year old Owen, read an original poem. The work, which Owen wrote and co-delivered with his counselor Oliver, expresses what many people feel about camp.
Needless to say, there were a few tears running down some faces when Owen completed his heartfelt message.
I love everybody,
I love Pok-O-MacCready.
Whenever I’m mad,
or whenever I’m sad,
I think of all the great people around me.
It’s like a family.
I love the world,
and all it’s faces.
But being at Pok-O,
Is the best of those places.
