This piece of poetry was written by Stephen Jenkinson – and recorded and arranged by Gregory Hoskins – for the Campfire Stories film "The Art of Slowing Down Time". In the film, which you can watch here, we only ended up using an excerpt of it, but this is the full poem. The images used in the video are a mix of outtakes from several different Campfire Stories films, along with some newly shot pieces of footage.
