Death ofa Rose One day they came, making at their presence, ' a gigantic impression. More so to me on Monday, when I observed them . in their prime. And, we became as one to one - An unexceptional fascination for sheer beauty surrenders itself. The most delicate hue of rose withers at its edges, Beauty bows her head with age - how sad To-day I watched them dying. A. BUSS, Form ll l M.. Day 's End The fire in the west burned slowly, 5 Accenting the quietness of the pasture. Soft breezes called birds home to rest, While rabbit, mouse, and squirrel thought now of slumber. Flower petals closed for the night, And o herdsman drove his cattle to the barn. The sweet sadness of day's end had come. Page 26 MURRAY COOK, Form I3

A Sailor The man had walked this earth for many a year, And now as the time of his leaving drew near He began to think of time gone by, And asked himself, why must he die? He had seen the Seven Seas and their splendour. Had visited ports that now he can't remember. And had sailed on boats and sailing ships Seeing the world as he worked his trips. In every port a friend he found, And every year he sailed the world around Free and wild were the times of youth Always in search of glory and truth. Yet somewhere on his voyages through the years He changed from son to sir, and left the seas To settle down and take his place in the land And work and sweat for the feeding hand. Then the years took their toll and claim As age crept upon him and youth was slain Only the memories lingered in his heart Where before there burned a fire so bright. Now he snaps from another dream of old - Back to life, back to his cruel world To live yet another hour, another day Thinking that there was once another day. JOHN M. VESTERS, Form F38 Page 25
