TO THE GRADUATES, 1952 The twilight of school days is fading, The curtain of night slowly falls Awake’ning the spirit with whispers As memory softly recalls. From the valley of childhood you started And up the long hill did you go. Through trials and hardships you plodded ine going at times was so . slow. For this was the steep hill of learning With pebbles and rocks in the way. But those so courageous and trusting Found happiness each single day. At last after long years of striving The student ascends to the top The pulses now race with new gladness But hope, faith and joy must not stop. And as you survey the great kingdom From the top of the hill where you stand. Just say to yourself, “I’ll remember I’ve been given a strong helping hand.’’ The valleys all nestle below you The sky is the deepest of blue. The bright streams flow onward to rivers And you must go onward now, too. As you stand surveying your childhood The memories, thoughts of the past. Creep into your spirit with longing The darkness is falling so fast. Your back is now turned from the past Your spirit is calm and serene. But as you look towards the future Night’s curtain encloses the scene. —Patty Wofford. 14
