H I -1.1 F !•: G. H. S. — 19 2 7 Senior Class Poem We pause upon the threshold of that door that leads youth on,— A golden world before us, and a sapphire sky above,— Our lives, a road before us, lead us through the golden vale, Broadened, bettered and uplifted by the work which we have loved. And so, before we travel on this highway broad and long That leads us on and forward o’er the glorious trail of youth! While we still are all together, ere the parting of the ways, We leave these simple verses, not in idle jest, but truth. We hate to leave the dear old school, and words cannot express That feeling of affection that lies locked within our hearts. But then, we leave for better things and greater things to do. In the great world where each of us must do his little part. The friendships formed are lasting, and, we hope, the knowledge too. We leave our lonesome places for another class to fill. We have gained a bit of learning and our lingering here is done, But when our step is feebled, we’ll remember these days still. Harold Brigham, ’21 wm r281
