(lass Poem In the year oi forty-four, When they opened wide the door For the school year to begin, We as Freshies did come in. The studies came—but fast And we longed for the past. We waited patiently for it all to end And now it's behind us—Amen. Now the year is forty-five And as Sophomores we still thrive. We work real hard to get an A And after school sometimes we stay. But we're getting there slow, and sure And take our medicine without a cure. Then once again our books we lend, To the bookstore—Amen. Another year has finally past. Forty-six has come—at last! Down the halls again we tread Often standing on our head. Now we're Juniors you can see, Him and her, you and me. And once again our tests we send To our teachers Amen. Now we stroll the halls with pride; Being Seniors, we take it in our stride. And to our books we no longer refer When we answer correctly we sit and purr. Now dear school we must depart, And we admit it breaks our heart, But to Commencement we must attend Then on to the future—Amen. Ruth Ross Colors Fuschsia and silver Flower White Rose
