The football games were super-best Just one continuous round, Of Proms, parades, and picnics, too We who are college bound. Our groups of friends we’ve shared alike Sweets and cakes after school. And in those monetary matters Applied the golden rule. A million new delights we’ve known, New students know them too. They never seem the same as when We’re Seniors, brand spanking new! —Selected
