Class Poem ‘Graduation’ We have slaved and prayed to reach this goal We have worked and played so far, as a whole. But now we must part and go our way Can we ever gain back this one last day? How short the years seem to us now We knew we’d make it, not quite sure how. Way back in ’49, when we started out How simple our life was we cannot doubt, lo parties and dances we made our way How grateful to classmates we cannot say. Even our teachers will miss us, I'm sure, Will we ever forget our Washington tour? Our lockers will welcome a new load of junk From another class who thinks neatness is bunk. But all in all we have done our best And we’re ready now, for life’s own test. . 20 Words by Evelyn Kelly
