Blind hate, lilce a violent volcano Has incrusted the earth with once-molten lava, We, now of Shortridge, are witnessing the destruction - Are fearful iest our dreams lie crushed beneath the ruins. For but a moment we falter, bewildered by the unforeseen, Then gradually do we become part of the multitude Who is bearing the debris away. The tasic, at first so burdensome, becomes lighter, And there, not so distant, lies our land Somewhat changed, but still intact. As the steps of marching soldiers Fall away into endless time Becoming indistinct and obscure - So fall andfade the importunate years, But, ever present, is the eager figure OF youth, erring occasionally, faltering often, But with a face made bright By youthful spirit, courage, and ambition. Marilynn Wasson
