Monday night SAM camp joined us at the Cloud for our second Honoring Ceremony of the summer. Our campers graced us with another beautiful fire and spoke with love and reverence for the best and truest qualities of those FC Questers for which the fire burned. These Words capture the beauty and truth that was spoken that night, and they will recall it now and forever.
Flame from afar
A beacon for the crow
Flying through the night
Light on the river
Dances towards the cresting waves
The spring greets the hills
A harmonious dance, alive with color
Cedar tacks against the tide
To the distant exultation of thunder
Upon the rich earth
The ash stands tall
Dandelions dance in the wind
Seeds carry far, the heart persists
Embers carry radiant gifts
Giving birth to flame
Roots like hands, they hold the soil
From Earth the circle will be made
Fox seeking, lit by stars
Constellations are your guide
The chorus of birds heralds the dawn
Closing the night, warming the hearth
These Words will live on in the hearts
Until next time,
-Charlie
