c:()c ©raDatim GLASS POEM The gallant ship prepares to sail for far off seas; AH spread her sails to catch the gentle breeze. Anchors a-weigh — rhe chantey loud doth ring, And soon the clanking anchor chain comes rattling in. She moves ! A thing of beauty — As all young life. On shore, they stand Admiring. Scan With eager eyes, And speculate The venture ' s enterprise. Now tiny waves break gainst her bow their crest — Each heart breathes forth a hope for all that ' s best — As proud — away she sails — into the golden West. We too, dear ones, full soon take ship — This sheltered port we leave with sunset breeze: Our present moorings soon we ' ll gently slip — Commit our bark unto the mercy of the seas. Behind, we ' ll leave with fears and tears and sighs — Though all dissembled by your smiling eyes — Ye, who have our craft well steered of late; Ye, who ever hence, shall watch our fate; Ye, who. come joy to us, shall with us true be glad: Ye, who. come ugly storms — for us be sad. Ah ' well ye know Life ' s angry waves- — Its undertow- — - Its cruel storms that blow! And so we thus commit us to your earnest care — Follow us please, with humble fervent prayer. And this we plead, Whether neath soft sunny Southern sky. Or storm-tossed by the angry boist ' rous sea. Where ' er our port may lie. Oh let your orisons gently sigh To Heaven in our need. And Oh my Classmates, what shall I— can I say — Unto thy kindred hearts all firmly knit with love — With silken strands of young love gay — Reminding one of Heaven above? Deep calls to deep — Heart unto heart. Sweet secrets keep. Ne ' er ne ' er impart Save to their kin. And that ' s no sin. For. true the Poet sings and well. Roses, my dear, they NEVER tell. So we, who ' ve as a unit, toiled and moiled Together scolded— fussed — studied — played and prayed — Prinked — pranked — were caught — and mayhap. flayed — Who ' ve lost or won in many a game. Yet, winners — losers — smile the same — We ' d never DARE express in rhyme Class secrets dear — of mine and thine. But this we know: Where ' er we go — So long as our dear ROSES blow. We ' ll ne ' er forget these sweet sweet years — Gladdened with Joy — And a dash of tears. No matter where our ships may sail, To what far port or foreign dime; Memory, we know, will never fail Remind us of our school-day time. I ' ll think of you dear Classmates all! Do think of me. whatc ' er befall. When trouble comes (and things u. ' ill mix) Just grin! Remember— you ' re ' 36. Though rough the going harsh the climate. PICK your PEAK, my dear — and CLIMB IT!!! True to our ideals, though lofty as the spars Of our good ship. Clear, clean, pure as stars: With naught of craven-naught of idle brag: With busy hands and minds: with hearts that never flag. For thus, and only thus, may each Classmate hope to be Loyal to Alma Mater ' True child of S. H. C, Stout are the anchor, hawsers, holding safe the ship Which heaves and strains upon the swelling tide; And stout the lofty sails outspread — o ' er head — To catch the frcshning breeze from far and wide. So too, we have our anchor — hawsers — sails and chart. To guide us o ' er Life ' s trackless wave: To point the course unto our destined mart: From utter shipwreck, lives to save. Our sails? Our lofty thoughts — pure — silken — Which waft us on to fields elysian. Our anchor stout? True Faith — impiety doth mock. Holds us in storm and stress, and keeps us from the rock. Our hawsers? Naught but earnest, constant prayer Tying us safe to God — compelling His Paternal care. Here. O Classmates, Here. At Alma Mater, dear We ' ve sought to learn the art Which She would fain impart: The art of steering course by one safe Chart ! The Chart of Him Who quells the angry sea— The Chart — and Heart — Of Him Who makes this plea — To me — to thee — Child ' Follow ME ' Page Ten
