Anna Davis, ’47. They speak of life, eternity, and God. Elinor Witiiam, ’47. MEMORIES ADVENTURE It’s moonlight and roses My books are full of joyous things; And memories of old: They tell of happiness life brings; Dear little tear drops, In lands exotic though I look. The heart ache never told. I’ll find no treasure like a book. All of these things. Dear, They carry me to lands afar; Remind me of you, To countries yet unreached by car; Of the faith that once I had Of all the trips the Big Four took, That always you’d be true. None could equal those in a book. Years will swiftly pass me by; Some day when planes develop speed, Dreams will be shattered again; I’ll see the things of which I read. But I’ll always keep you in my heart. But seeing them, by hook or crook. Even to the eternal end. Will just add beauty to the book. Lois Patnaude, ’47. Ardeth Meserve, ’47. WINTER'S FAREWELL PINCH STORM AT PROUT'S NECK As I stood silent on a quiet April day, The seething waves dashed high Rejoicing that the winds of March had blown Against the ledges; away. The spray flew upward I felt a nip that sent a chill along my spine; To mingle with the amber sky. Then after that, at once the sun shone warm and fine. The surf drew back to pound again; I knew, of course, that grumpy Winter just had The gulls rode high; passed, On rocks off shore, And left the year to gracious Spring at last. Seals floundered in the driving rain. Gilmore Rounds, '47. Neal Jannelle, 47. i

54 THE FOUR CORNERS COVENANT While the thunder rolled with mournful song, Prom above I heard him calling; In all its wild enchantment The sky has cleared, the clouds have gone; The forest is a covenant The rain has ceased its falling. T hat stays lorever green. Since my love has died, in every storm, Within the forest, life is wild, I hear his voice, complaining, wild! But in its beauty lies, A something timid still, and free. I see his smile, assured and warm. ■ When sunshine follows safe and mild! The pine that stands in majesty Upon the mountain side Though lonely in my solitude. I feel him ever at my side; Is promise of enduring love. I know that alter life’s brief interlude. Towers of strength, the mighty spruce Eternally together we’ll abide. Natalie Richardson, ‘4S. Brood silently o’er all, An influence in this world of ours. AWAKENING Uplifting to eternity. Spring is here! The lorest is a covenant The trees are budding; That stays forever green. The birds are singing; Rodney W. Mallory, ’47. Spring is here! Spring is here! SOLITUDE The flowers are blossoming; * Alar to the right of the rolling hills The ice and snow are going; I And away in the distance he heard, Spring is here! 'Midst the rumbling noise of the sounding guns. ihe mysterious cries of a jungle bird. Edward Doody, '47. He heard them still at the day’s drawn end, HALF-PENNY THOUGHTS : As he solemnly walked down the road. With gun on his shoulder, supplies on his back, I smell the breath of spring And clothes that were tight and much sewed. In the wisps of fog; I hear her voice calling At last he found a sheltered spot, In the trilling frog. » Where no human had ever trod; Jean Frederick, ’47. And he knelt right there on his weary knees, And offered a prayer to his God. Who knows what is up there Nancy Hascall, ’47. Beyond the distant blue? 4 It makes me sort of wonder FAREWELL —Does it puzzle you? t It’s hard to put in words the mood Ardeth Meserve, ’47. i! That I am in today; For now that school is almost o'er. I do not like the winter storm; I’m loath to go away. I'd rather be where it is warm. ’• Sitting next to the kitchen stove. I really wish I had the chance Huddled like a little dove. To take my four years o’er; James Maxfielo, '47. Not even lowly Freshman tasks Would seem to me a bore! Birds that sing ’midst morning dew . i Make us jump up brisk and beaming; : !i! Eut now, dear school, beyond your rule. Birds that sing 'midst falling dusk Make us starry-eyed and dreaming. It's time to venture forth; ; 1 The lessons you have taught to me Edward Doody, ’47. Will start to show their worth. “I wonder what tomorrow will bring!” The time has come to say farewell Restless people often sav. To dear old Scarborough High; But life would not be worth the living, And I must say with aching heart, If we knew the chart today. “Alma Mater dear, good-bye!" Linwood Vail, ’47. Herbert Ridlon, ’47. The day is slowly dying; A VOICE IN THE STORM Night is falling in the west; The sky w'as dark w'ith ugly cloud; Through the trees the wind is sighing; Then down in torrents came the rain; This is the time that I like best. Next came the thunder roaring loud; Herbert Ridlon, ’47. My heart was filled with pain. : !
