GRADUArjOJN A FRIENDSHIP TREE A tree was planted, twelve years ago A tree of Friendship, fine and sound Carefully watched and let to grow With strong deep roots down in the ground. Until today, no branches have appeared, But--true to the pattern God made for trees We friends will part, and just as we have feared Our lives have reached the time for these And each will branch out in his own way To become fine men and women of note To make life, both, worthy and gay To excercise our privilege to vote. To raise our fanilies and help plant trees The trees of friendship, fine and sound Then they’ll find friends, the same as we V ith strong deep roots down in the ground. Nadine Stewart MY DREAMS Now here I am standing at life’s doorway. Forward, backv ard, to both paths I turn and gaze. Behind me those school years so dear and gay. Ahead, the future, a deep and tangled maze. My dreams of my career are filled with hope I Reporter, teacher, wife, what will life hold? V ith whatever comes along I’ll try to do my best. I’ll work and laugh and try so hard to please. V ith love, and joy, and contentment I hope to be blest. To live out my last years in comfort and ease. Here are my dreams, some great ans some so small, I ask to be able to live them out, that’s all. Mary Ann Molino
