READY “Out of school life, into life’s school”, Whoever said a thing more true? Our learning here may be complete But think of the things we have yet to meet. Dignified, wise, we call ourselves Yet, what life problems have we shared? Our parents have earned our board and keep, Furnished the roof under which we sleep. Thirty-one seniors on the world’s threshold, Hopeful and eager for what may come. Trusting the world that it will give An equal chance for them to live. MEDITATION An old man with an uneven step, just now passed my cabin door. His eyes are dim and seem far away—can’t even hear as before. It was not so many years ago, this man was a carefree boy, And to him it seems like yesterday, when he had dreams of joy. Although these days he still is dreaming, his dreams are of a different kind, Trials of the times when he was young, are filling the old man’s mind. Had he lived as a selfish mortal, could his face beam with such joy? So to have perfect peace when you’re old, commence when you're a boy.
