BONNERS FERRY HIGH SCHOOL Dedication Poem Dame Fortune must have whispered The night that he was born, I give to thee your destiny A baton and a horn. N ow, here I give you wisdom, And a little care and strifeg Plus kindly looks and love of books To last you through your life. I know you'd like it better, Were you handsome as a kingg I'm sorry lad, it's just too bad You can't have everything! Instead I offer humor To aid you on your wayg Sometimes a smile, to make life worthwhile And laughter saves the day. Somethings will try your patience Here's an extra grain or twog Also a dash of temper's flash To light the way for you. Work done Dame Fortune lingered, Oh yes, He should be noble 3 She waved her hand, tossed in a band, And gave the world Tom Coble. -Larry g Hoglan ------v- ---- 1-vv-1t----o4:----vv:
