far., BLUE and GULD fm, Class Poem YOUR ALADDIN LAMP Aladdin, you remember, found a fabled lamp of old, And when he rubbed it, a genie brought him gold, Or jewels, princes' palaces, or wealth beyond compare, Not an ordinary lamp but a magical affair. Its magic brought him riches and made his dreams come true. You, too, are an Aladdin and a magic lamp have you. Your magic lamp you found, just as that youthful Turk. You filled your lamp with oil of long study and hard work. At first you had some trouble to have this oil ignite. And then, as time passed, you saw a tiny light. So often it would sputter, and the iiame became quite low. You tried so hard to feed it and help to make it grow. Constant refueling took time and greatest care. You held on high your treasure, a magic lamp so fair. In gazing all about you, you saw each light had grown. And yet, not one could equal that bright flame of your own. Others, like Foolish Virgins, seemed very much distressed. Then slowly but surely, their light beamed like the rest. Now that tiny light has grown through years of care. It's your Aladdin lamp to treasure and to bear So high, that others seeing it may watch that glaring flame And follow your example-to make theirs' just the same. You've nurtured it, you've strived for it. 'Till now with admiration You hold aloft your Aladdin lamp-a high school education. MARGARET KISSINGER. I 191
