FOREWORD The merry-go-round turns Bright, flashing color, (Jay, laughing figures, Around, around, around, Busily turning. Watch your spinning carrousel! A glimpse of brightness—we won a game— A dim memory of sadder days A test? Reports? The merry-go-round turns on; Forgetting is easy in tuneful motion. Remembering, too— Remember days of pure lunacy; Some days Blumc is bedlam. Watch your spinning Retro carrousel. Remember joy, and sad and crazy times, Pure fun, hard work, excitement. When your ride is done, remember. The merry-go-round turns on; New riders climb aboard, Labor, laugh, sing, and sigh, Then they, too, soon dismount And the ride is but a memory— A happy memory!
