Laughtomb Harmony High School, '32 Colby College, '36 The Mary L. Carver 1936 Prize Poem for which Miss Laugh- ton received an award of fifty dollars. Ambitious as the foolish lilac tree That buds while sn-ow's still drifted in the yard We spread our soft ideas and brave a hard March blast, in scorn of June's maturity. As transient as the shadow of a cloud, March-tossed above the distamt gray-blue hills, Our youth's sad spring-time laughter gaily spills And hopes to gain long life for being loud. We stand alone with laughter and with youth, Told our brave hopes will fade, but not told Why, And only dimly guessing all the bars That life will raise to fence us off from truth. Like elms in March against a twilight sky, Our leaflessness at least shuts out no stars. 23
