CLASS POEM It’s taken strength and courage to reach the goal for which we’ve sought; We've had some fears and trials as our onward way we’ve fought. At times the sky seemed clouded, but there’s always been a sun; There’s been a lot of pleasure and a bit of wholesome fun. We know we’ve made some failures, but perhaps this had to be— To teach us all a lesson that our faults we’d better see. Four years we’ve worked together, and some honors we have won; And Oh! We hope the school is better for the things that we have done. Four years we’ve spent together; we’ve made dear friends we’ll not forget. And now our hearts will yearn so sadly for those that we have met While sharing all our pleasures—sometimes our joys and troubles, too— When sitting in the school room, as we oft were wont to do. We hope we’ll make a host of friends as we go out in life. But when we’re sitting all alone, away from noise and strife, We’ll know our lives are better as we seem to hear the calls Of well-remembered voices that echoed in El Reno High School halls. We’d like to pay a tribute to all who’ve helped us on our way And given us a lofty purpose for which no gold could pay. You’ve had much patience as you’ve smoothed for us a path each year And cast aside from out our sight so many worries drear. We’ll try to do our duty as you’ve taught us in the past; We’ll try to keep your standards high before us to the last That you’ll be proud of all the victories the Class of ’36 has won— That you will feel the school is better for the things that we have done.
