True, with each fall we mature but We have now matured enough to face reality- No one can survive alone. Wc need the warmth of friendship. That encompassing feeling of togetherness. The touch of a friendly hand helping to secure a hat— The clasp of arms and flicker of smiles in a learning effort— The single word of encouragement and touch of friendship Can do more to aid us in our work Than all the empty gestures which pass our way ea( ' h day.

And we are relieved that the FINAL finals are over, A sadness also prevails within each of us. We have attended our last high school class ever. And V ictory Dances and Proms have passed. Everything we are accustomed to Has been snatched from us; We know that friends will scatter. A storm of tears is held within onlv By the realization of our Graduation dream come true. A new dream, which is the future- College, marriage, achievements- Must replace the old dreams of the past. Suddenly we laugh. And wonder how we could have Ever felt so sad at a time hke this.
