So many years before have since flown by...
back then so young...but seniors now are we;
and here are friends I view with tearful eye,
yet thankful some are still left here with me.
My high school yearbook is online to share;
I scan each page, remember each dear face.
But, there are those who climbed that special stair...
at peace with God...perhaps a better place.
I read the names these photos yet define,
of friends whom I'm so happy are still here,
along with those who had to cross that line...
I'm caught between a smile and falling tear.
My love, I send to every precious friend...
here in this yearbook...joy and sorrow blend.
