PAST, PRESENT, AND FUTURE Come, I bid you, take my hand. Let's stroll once more to memory land. Let's walk again through our primary daysg And renew the happy times of our school-child phase We tried to learn, so very quick, Our reading, 'riting, and 'rithmeticg 'Till it seemed the time did fly, I can't exactly say, the reason why. We studied to learn, figure and fact, And tried to improve our intellect. But just to study wasn't it at allg We liked to play, especially ball. Then at last the time grew near, We were to begin our first high school year. New duties were ours, jobs were to begin, For we were that class, the Freshmen! In that year of fifty-one, We were just about the happiest under the sun. Those last four years were to be, Our high-school educational destiny. Finally, that wonderful year shall arrive, The year of nineteen hundred fifty-five. Next Spring when we shall graduate, Our class consists of 33, I shall enumerate. When we together do convene, There're three Shirleys, two Dorises and one Jean. Handsome David, friendly Bill, Talky Eleanor, and happy Av Neail, Pretty Dorothy, and Peggy our queen, Sweet Sadie, and intelligent Hazeline. Athletic Ralph, Max, and Bob, The boys on the team, that do their job. industrious Margaret, and Lottie are to be seen, Nice Clifton, Guy, and Dean, Shy Rosie, and Louise her pal, Two Teds, and Lester to keep up our morale. Among the group, you will see, Likable Howard and quiet J.B. Emma Laura, a nice girl, you will agree, Barbara Jean, Shelby, and of course, there's me, We must not forget our leader, so kind, Our petite and energetic teacher, Mrs, Rhynel We look forward to the unknown years, With happy hearts, free from fears, To take our places in life's great workg From our responsibilities, we cannot shirk. Some of us will be teachers, nurses, farmers or clerks, Salesmen, drivers, or in manufacturing works, Secretarial, law, medicine or sports, Or some branch of service sorts. Whatever we choose in life, Whether an office man or a housewife, Ijust know we cannot lose, In any vocation that we choose. But wait, we're forgetting one big thing! We would not be graduating this Springg Had it not been for our teachers so swell, And our fathers and mothers who kept us well. May God protect us, and lead us with care. In God, we trust, is our prayer. Poetess: Johnnie Ann Seagle
