CLASS POEM We started at the foot of the pit. Climbing and struggling, and making the best of it Placing our feet on the rocky ledge, Preparing for the future that lies ahead. Trying to make sure of every move, So there will be nothing in the future to lose, Upward we climb through the dark of the night, Trying to reach the bright beaming light. The higher we climb, the harder we fight, For the goal we set is now in sight. We have known of the darkness of night. But now we see tomorrow ' s light. GLENN SIMMONS Class Poet
