We are a strange breed,
Homo-sapien (gilwellius)
Common name:
The Scout Leader.
Our habitat is the great outdoors,
In the bush,
On the snowy slopes,
Abseiling off a cliff,
Hiking up a mountain.
Or at gatherings,
Where strange rituals are performed:
saluting,
Left handed, hand-shakes,
And the B R A V O!
We are also to be seen congregating,
Around campfires.
We each have our own special uniforms,
And Multi-badged blankets.
We like to accessorize these items,
With our own identifying personal embellishments.
We are only distinguished from our young;
The Joeys, Cubs, Scouts, Venturers and
Rovers,
By our relative size and colour of our plumage.
We are a rare breed.
But well worth examining,
On an anthropological level.
