COLUMBUS SCHOOL for GIRLS THOUGHTS ON COMMENCEMENT Look back! Look back! The passing hours cry. l'll not look back-- No, not I. The door is opening, And clad in white we stand Looking down bright avenues To an unknown land. Life sparkles within us, We are young, we are free. Comrades, come! Great dreams call us, Wondrous visions we see. So with the joyous will to dare, The whole world is before us! Let us go quickly And seize our share! And, yet, beneath this joy there runs A mournful, melancholy strain- This is the last time. This is the last time We'll climb the long sunny stairs To the fellowship of ordered classrooms. This is the last time We'll see the banners red and golden In the solemnity of the chapel service. No longer will the shade splashed lawns be ours To wander over as we please. No longer will we have the joyous contests On the breeze swept playing fields. This is the last time. Never look back! Happiness was there. Yet the whole world is before usl Let us go quickly And seize our share! MARY ELIZABETH MEEK, 1941 l 6 l
