Elmbrook Print E-mail
(0 votes)

Way up in old Elk County,
on top of Winslow Hill,
When the bulls begin to bugle,
Time seems to stand right still.

At a little camp called Elmbrook,
in the middle of this sanctuary,
You'll feel like you were in heaven,
Be it June or January.

The eerie sounds of the buglin' bull
that break the silent still,
shake the very core of my soul
and I pray they always will.

Note from the author:
" Elmbrook is a hunting camp that I am privileged to visit in Elk County, Pennsylvania. Winslow Hill is the center to, as I understand it, an area holding the largest free roaming elk herd east of the Mississippi."

"Between the desire And the spasm Between the potency And the existence Between the essence And the descent Falls the Shadow"
