Senior ClaSg oem The little gate is reached at last, The gate that leads to life; We push it wide, and at the past One wistful look we backward cast. Our footsteps lagging slow. With hand on latch, a vision bright Of what the future holds Appears to us in golden light; We hesitate to take our flight As though we fear to go. The lamp of knowledge lights our way. By faithful teachers lit To guide us through our every day, P)Ut still we wish to longer stray Along the way we came. Dear School, where we have learned so well To take what comes and smile. And ne’er despair, how can we tell The love with which our bosoms swell At that beloved name! — Maria W ade Sizer. 10
