I'M AN A9 NOW! And about to graduate. I-low strange it sounds To hear those words Coming from my own lipsl 'I recall when I was twelve years old, A shy awkward B7, I eyed those tall A9's with awe. How wonderful, I thought, To wear an A9 ribbon for all to see Now I'm fourteen, I know the joy of an A9 ribbong I also know how quickly three years Can slip through my fingers. 'I'here's a bit of sadness Hidden in the depths of joy- Even in an A9 ribbon. I feel sadness at leaving I. B., The sort of sadness I feel When I reach the end of a good book- Sadness because this is the end of an important chapter In my lite. l'll get my diploma very soon. It's graduation, It's Iunel -Sally Rochlin, A9 l WHENI GROW UP, then I will be, A person of a high degree: I may be a doctor, I may be a nurseg I may be a poet, and write verse after verse. I may be a sculptor or an Indian Chief, But if I really knew, it would be a relief. -Margot Bankoff, B7, 211 - MR.

THE SKY AND ME Dawnl The morning oi a fresh spring day! l peek at the sky with sleepy eyes, But suddenly l arn wide awake For l see before me a miracle of color and har- mony A child's paint box spilled across the heavens. Slowly the rainbow curtain spreads and risesg The stage is set for a new act in the never-end- ing drama of Life. The sun is a fair-haired princess, reaching To caress the trees and the flowers and grass. She waves a wand that splashes green and pink and blue over the earth. The birds are dainty dancers Pirouetting across the sky In a ballet beautiful and graceful. Then night fallsg the golden princess ls hidden from prying eyes for another night. In her place reigns the moon, a silver haired queen Gracious and majestic as she ascends her celes- tial throne. The stars are sparkling sequins. Scattered over her black velvet dress. She draws a cloak of silence about her-then All is quietg the world is at peace. At last, l feel that there are but two things left on earth -- the sky and rne. -Ruth Herzoff, A9. ' rf .
