CLASS POEM PARTING When day is quickly, ending And night’s long shadows come, We often count our blessings And many things left undone. Our task is never ending, Our victory so far, But we will keep on striving % Until we find our star. Before our day is over, Before our task is done, Comes the glad sounds of parting, Farewell to everyone 0 school, with all your splendor, We’ll miss you so, I fear; Your hallowed grounds so tende 1 Will echo through the years. May songs we sing so gayly To our school on the hill Stand for all we cherished: Love, friendship and goodwill. Then let us leave you saying words which often start, All the tender feelings, that come when hearts must part. —Frank L. Johnson 19
