Thinking Day Poem by Catherine Habbie

We the girl scouts always prepared
The only ones who dared
And did our cookies share

With our scarves and woggles
Your mind we will boggle
Beware, be warned, don't goggle

We can tie a reef knot
We are the top slot
Wiping off the universes' blot

We do a sheepshank
We predict petty pranks
And are so very frank

Thinking caps today we have worn
Our pretty heads they will adorn
All foolish ideas henceforth shorn

An ode to Baden Powell
Who taught us these marvels
Learn how the knot unravels
