SicilOns sa This is our quest, To follow our star Almost painfully, with fond memories pierced with wishfulness, we remember our senior year. We remember . endless applications with endless pages, —=PSATS, SA)Ssand AG is, early morning walks in foggy New York, and the plane ride back home, —our senior rings, proms, and little sisters, —Mercy itself, with long halls and zooming yellow carts, We remember the year’s joys and tears, and the new feeling of unity with our friends, sharing experiences as young women, not as girls, Together we grow up, Together we mature, Together . we are the class of 69. “To dream the impossible dream, ” Up ahead twines an unbeaten path, made up with uncertainty mixed with hope, and leading to a green oasis. “To fight the unrightable wrong, ” Obstacles, looming out in ugliness, block the path, and mar the view. Slowly . the sun seeps through, We start walking, tripping over stones and rubble. Up ahead shimmers a dim light, We walk faster and faster— —the light grows brighter and brighter— we run and Fico: till the light blinds us— we have reached our star.
