Kenneth Chatfield Recessional...................................Senior Class THE WORLD IN YOUR HAND By Theodore Spencer Held in your hand, the round heavy world Can weigh your hand down till the globe smashes Hand and globe together. Held in your hand, The world can be tossed up, a bubble, into the air And be dissolved, emptily, to nothing, Leaving an idle hand. Held in your hand, The world can weight your hand, strengthen it, fix it, Till you can move your hand with the weight in it, And you, the flexible hand, the world, are one. —20—
