Class Poem ■ ■ ■ 5 Joseph Rice Our gay four years at last are up, And now we bid adieu, We're off to college or to work, And start ventures new. We're happy now, we start again, All on our own at last. The future lies before us So enticing and so vast. by Leonard Sagatilian and Joseph Rice Yet, as we leave these halls so dear After all these happy years, Our hearts feel very heavy And our eyes are filled with tears. With memories fond we say goodbye, We laugh, we jest, and cheer; But the reason for our laughter Is to hide a-growing tear. Leonard Sagatilian
