-We all come here from different parts of life, 

some might be filled with lots of grief, and some lots of strife,

but if you come here, things are going to be alright.

All you have to do, is just spend one single night.

 

-The days spent here is only a week,

and now all of us come before you even though many of us reek.

Some want to spend eternity under the stars, 

away from the city and all the dirty cars.

 

-YLA's a chance to see what natures for,

because many of us here, have never been here before.

Along with these councelers, portapodies and bears,

even though when we see one it raises our hairs.

 

-I wrote this poem for all of us I'm not gonna lie.

I wrote it for me, Stephanie, Niesha, Ben, Durga, Kate, Andrea, Tien, Asya, Mirianna, Adan and Guy.

We came here seperately but now we are together,

we did it for nature that might not be here forever.

 

-I hope this park and others like it will last,

because the way this worlds going it might become the past.

The experiences here were definitly a blast,

but oh do I regret how time is so fast.

 

- We canoed in the lake and backpacked on a trail,

and even kept going when some were going to fail.

Now it's time to wrap this poem up with a farewall for all.

Thanks for helping students from everywhere including Nepal.

 

-Thank you for donating money, time and the rest,

so this experience in nature could be the best.

I wish everyone could see the mountains talk and the raven's crow,

because if that happened, the world might be a better place to know.
