Colgan High School - Image Yearbook (Pittsburg, KS)

Text from Pages 1 - 96 of the 1973 volume:

Friends come, friends gog the loves men know are ever fleetingg In song and smile a little while we read their kindly greetingg With warmth and cheer they linger near, the friends we fondly treasureg Then on a day they drift away, a loss no words can measure. This much we knowg friends come, friends go, as April's gladness passes, As sun and shade, in swift parade, paint changes on meadow grasses. And though we grieve to see them leave, in thought we still enfold themg In Memory's Net we keep them yet, and thus can ever hold them. They come, they go--these Loves we know, Life's Tides are ever movingg But year on year, they still seem near-- so great the power of loving.
