Invergowrie Primary School

by Miller H Caldwell — Read all 115 poems by Miller H Caldwell

A song for the pupils who raised over £2,000 for the Asia Earthquake in Oct 05.
I was the camp manager at Mundihar caring for more than 2,000 refugees and now give talks. First stop the pupils who gave their pocket money, to show how Aid works.

Saturday, April 22, 2006


Poem Artwork
C Am Dm G7
Invergowrie Primary School, has made its mark abroad
C Am Dm G7
Money raised for Pakistan was never ever stored
C G
You came to school, dressed as you pleased
C G
A dodge ball game, was fun it seemed
F G7
You raised more money still
C Am Dm G
With proceeds of the Christmas Fair, which rang a busy till

Em Am
CH Earthquakes shake the land
Em Am
Bring death, disease and sorrow
C G
Love, concern and Aid
G7 C
Will build a new Tomorrow

C Am Dm G7
So tents were put up quickly, white tents in the snow
C Am Dm G7
Young children lost their way, they knew not where to go
C G C G
But soon the Camp meant food, blankets and a school
C G C G
Classes were in blue tents, not mixed as a rule.
F G7
Life began again but it was cold
C Am Dm G7
Winter was approaching, not welcomed by the old.



CHORUS
C Am Dm G7
Camp doctors came from Cuba, wounds to mend and wounds to heal
C Am Dm G7
Water tankers came each day, for the cooking of a meal
C G C G
At four o’clock precisely, with no need for a ticket
C G C G
Everyone took part, in playing the game of cricket
F G7
And when the darkness came
C Am Dm G7
They huddled in their blankets, sheltered from the rain.

CHORUS
C Am Dm G7
The camps are now all closed. They live in warmer days
C Am Dm G7
Their tents are now back home, in Kashmir’s sad sunrays
C G C G
Days to clear the land, in hope to build once more
C G C G
With heavy metal sheeting and wooden beams galore
F G7 F G7
They see a brighter future, they no longer seem to worry
F G7 F G7
It’s because of each of you, at this school in Invergowrie

CHORUS
F G7 F G7
They see a brighter future, they no longer seem to worry
C G7 F G C
It’s because of each of you, at this school in Invergowrie.

You pay tribute to the human spirit at its purest...touching poem and admirable children...there's much to learn from them.
