We love you dearly And we will ne ' re regret Nor will we e ' er forget All you have done We dread to say goodbye Our love will never die We ' ll be forever true, Dear Rosenwald. I CLASS POEM (By Ralphie Amos) TO YOU DEAR ROSENWALD Dear Rosenwald we cannot forget, The happy days spent here. The hardest days we ' ll keep in mind And the work we use to fear. There are many things we learned to do Along with you to help. There are many things we failed to do But do not blame yourself. If it had not been for you, We might have failed the test, But thinking of you, Dear Rosenwald We truly did our best. It is so hard Dear Rosenwald, To think of leaving you, But we ' ll try hard to do our best In everything we do. We thank you for your kindness, Your guide and watchful care, And we ' ll strive on and make the grade To reach the goal somewhere. j
