RAFF IT UP! - December, 2000/January 2001

Here are some poems and songs that the participants from the Community Building Gathering V had fun creating...

• Row, row, row your RAFF
  Gently through development
  Relationship, Action, Food and Fun
  Trust has just begun!
  
  
• Look around
  Lets have some fun
  Eat & drink & laugh
  
  It's time to build community
  It's all about using RAFF
  
  When you build relationships
  You need to look around
  don't be such a weirdo drip
  There are resources to be found
  
  Action takes us higher and yon
  We all need to get moving
  Cause when everyone is having fun
  It's easy to get grooving
  
  Food is always good to eat
  People can stuff their face
  With every kind of sort of treat
  It makes their blood sugar race
  
  Fun brings it all to one good place
  People help each other
  Working together with wisdom and grace
  Like sister, father, brother and mother
  
  
• The sun rose upon a crystalline hand
  A hand with empty lots and derelict homes
  Ah, said Su
  There is opportunity there
  A chance to build on relationships
  And create dwellings for folks who have little in this life
  Yes, said Darlene
  A neighbourhood to rival Glenora
  Let the action begin roared Caz
  
  A wheezing group called RAFF
  Spun ideas and dreams
  Said Cory, Ross & Jack
  Let us explore where no-one has gone before
  
  Shirley, touched by the angels, said
  What about habitat for Humanity
  Bravo, said Chris
  
  
• We are fun
  We are action
  We make relationships actually happen
  We are hungry
  We are famished
  Feed us soon or we will vanish!
