. Memories Our Campus Through the Seasons ln September when the days grew short and winds were blowing cool, Qur campus bloomed with students who were coming back to school. The g.rass was green as summertime, the trees their leaves displayed As the sunset shadows longer grew and the west began to fade. Then the artist autumn changed the scene and added colors gay- The leaves wore brown and red and gold til the wind coaxed them away Next came the drizzling, dripping rain and autumn wind so shrill, Dark gray was all the campus then and al. the world was chill. The first few flakes of fluffy snow were welcomed with a shout But soon were gone, as brilliantly, the lorcly sun came out. So near to Yuletide, yet each day persistec bright and clear, And still the snow was lacking us when C1ristmas came last year. Yet just five days till boding clouds the solemn news foretold The coming of the snowstorm in the way the poet told. All night, all day, the snow fell fast, till very deep it grew, To add his bit in drifts and heaps, the strong northwest wind blew. So winter passed. Then came the spring and when the soft sweet air Just spoke a whisper to the trees, why lol the buds were there. The' gentle rains sang to the ground and out there came to hear The gayest blades of soft green grass that ever did appear. So beauteous was our campus when the birds came back to sing: A common theme their songs all held: There's joy in everything. The leaping Howers just yawned and stretched and smiled up at the sun The joyous ecstasy we felt said, Life has just begun. So as the spring approached its height our year came to an end, And we said in our hearts a silent prayer that might to Heaven ascend, NIay the beauties of life that our Campus can give H7 Make us eager to teach them, and more ht to live? 11
