HAIKUS by Greta  

Stinging nettle stands

in the softly blowing wind

as the river goes

shoemarks in the dirt

friends laughing all around you

fills the camp with smiles

Dirty yucky feet

greasy groudy bodies

stink very badly

          -Greta Huschle, Teen Backpacker

Walking with turtles

    is my new favorite thing

    Patience, my reward

             -Nelson (counselor on Teen hike '09)

My heart was light

It blew away in the

wind like a balloon

But I need to stay grounded

Digging my roots into the

cool, moist irt

I scream an it echoes

off the scraggy cliff

back into my head, I

can see it like a reflection

The reflection isn't clear

like looking into the water

The blurred version of my

face screams back at me.

             -Lily Herbert  (written on the teen hike '09)

Finally  at the end of the day

I sit and look at the sunset.

I un pack my pack and unload

I feel better than the ay before

The pain from my legs is starting to fade

And I look back and think:

Wow, I did it.

I'm so proud of myself!

             -Raychell Bray ( teen hiker 2009)

En momentos y tiempos forjas tu destino, lo construyes,

despacio te acercas hasta que logras llegar a la cima,

te embeleses por unos segundos disfrutas, resplandeces.

Y en unos momentos rompes y te derrumbas,

llegas sin fuerza, destrozada a la orilla

te absorben y te pierdes solo eres un rastro,

y regresas a donde perteneces,

para comenzar de nuevo.
