•■THE TOWER S 194.S— 1949 pa ;e twenty-seven t • “For Cliff Is The Cause Mother We solemnly dedicate this poem to Miss Connerty. In her effort to make poets out of C4B —This is the result. When Monday is sad lor us Margaret is gay Eor Clifford is the cause. When Tuesday rolls along Margaret is sad For Clifford is the cause. On Wednesday. Margaret is clad In good clothes. And she is sad For Clifford is the cause. On Thursday she is happy again Although she and Cliff arc mad And Clifford is tho cause. Where are those smiles so tender and sweet Those loving arms that held us close Those laughing lips that brought us jov When our hearts were almost breaking? Shall we hear no words of endearment. Or see again those kind blue eyes. Or chance to speak to that one loved Who held us close in time of tears? Nay, never again shall we see her For He has taken her to rest. But she shall live on in memory Of those who love her dearly. PATRICIA I.OWE, Z3A 9 One Day On Friday her phone will ring . ' nd we will hear Margaret sing For Clifford is the cause. On Saturday she works hard Frying hamburgs in the lard And Clifford is not the cause. It ' s Sunday by now She boards the bus and. holy cow So does Clifford! FERNE LOOSF.MORE. C4B Spring will come again one day And chase away the clouds of grey, The buds will open wide and fair Into flowers for those who care. The grass will he an emerald green Looking so bright, so fresh, and clean. The wind blows softly o’er the hills Slowly turning the tall wind-mills. To the water lapping upon the shore People could listen for ever more, Vith all fhe c beautiful things in sight VC’c hope that spring will come over-night. JEANETTE CHERRY. C3A r • Conscience ' Twas like a creeping shadow V Itich across his mind would pass And w hen it had him surrounded It horrible rays would cast. All joys and dreams of peace Would vanish-and once again His thoughts drift far back. His protests much in vain. Into the past of torment, A torment crueller than The wickedness, the torture. Which is possessed by man. MYRTLE REITER. CIA • Down By The Brook Down by the brook where the grass is green. The water flows gently on; On cither side the lilacs bloom. And the sky is blue on high. For til is is spring and there is no gloom On this day so gay and serene; The sighing breeze passes gently through The tall and stately trees. The stones in the brook are covered with moss. And the water so leisurely flows. But here and there it is churned to foam By the point of a stone upturned. This is where I would like to be. When storms and troubles come. Because I know that they would pass For God, our Creator is here. ANN BETSCHEL. C3A • Lullaby Hush-a-bye little one, close your eyes tight, Hush-a-bye little on?, t : mc for good-night. ( ' lose vour eyes Pttle one, dream of things guy, Close your eyes little one, soon one more day. Lullaby little one. di.-am of things dear. Lullaby little one. never a fear. Co to sleep little one, for Jesus above Will uatch thee forc cr, and give you His love. ANN DhRE, C3A • Winter When the snow is softly falling Like the down in a summer breeze. We hear the sparrows chirping Among the leafless trees. Far off in the distance We can hear the sleigh bells ring. But here I am hoping. It soon will be spring. jean McMillan, C3A • The Rainbow When the rain had finally ceased to fall. The sun came out to meet us all Out from behind the large, black cloud Which had covered the sky like a dismal shroud. And then, to my complete delight. A beautiful rainbow came into sight. Some of its colours were rose-red and blue. Orange and green and height yellow loo. It seemed to me like a long, smooth slide. So l took an exciting but perilous ride. At the end of my slide I was glad I was hold For there, waiting for me was the pot of gold. NORMA MANZON, C3A

Man may invent, explore and find The things that give him peace of mind. But to solve the mysteries of the sky W ill he be given so good an eye? Because we have so short a stay, ' Tis not for you or me to say. So on we venture with curious eye. Seeking the wonders of the sky. MYRTLE REITER. C4A • The Twelve Months JANUARY, the new year ' s first. New made profits will be pursed. FEBRUARY, the month for valentines Brings to sweethearts love’s sweet rhymes. MARCH is the windy month of kites. Eager youngsters match their flights. APRIL we think of Easter Tide, Christ’s Resurrection, known far and wide. MAY. the month when flowers bloom. Then earth receives a sweet perfume, JUNE, the happy month of brides. When daughters are their mother ' s prides. JULY, hot weather comes to stay. Young and old on beaches play. AUGUST, the month before September, Students their duties will remember. SEPTEMBER, the warning school bell rings, And pupils to classes quickly brings. OCTOBER. Autumn’s leaves are falling As if to cold Jack Frost they’re calling. NOVEMBER begins the wintry weather. To skating parties we go together. DECEMBER, when the earth is snowy white, Christmas greetings and a new year bright! LENA FOSTYROVECH. C4B- • Winter The northern «ind blew oh. so cold. The tiny snowflakes tossed and rolled. The folk all scurried to and fro ' Through the bleak and frosty morning. Tiny children trudged their way, Dragging behind them, toboggans and sleighs. Off for a long day’s wintry play; The piercing wind forgotten. On glory ice some skaters glide. Colorful mufflers fly with each stride. A mantle of white blankets the countryside; And so the winter passes. M YRTLE REITER. CM A
