Camping Out In The Bush

Camping in the bush on our first night
Late to bed and early to rise
We set up tents
On a chilly night

Gathering wood
And piling up leaves
Making a safe hut
Under a tree

We snuggled into sleeping bags
All cozy and warm
While sleeping in our tents
We wished and hoped there wasn’t a storm

It was an adventurous night
From all of the loud noises
Some people got a fright
But camping out in the bush was worth it
