The Class of 1987 - Written by Jenn Tilden
Time can pass so slowly when you’re young
and want to grow.
And then in a short time you ask yourself-
“Where did it go?”
We always seem so busy finding new things
to discover,
We never stop and take the time to learn
about each other.
Sometimes we’re bitter enemies, we argue and
we fight.
But just to know that we’re still friends
makes everything alright.
And soon more time will pass and we will go
our separate ways,
Not knowing what just passed will become
the good old days.
And possibly tomorrow we’ll look back and
maybe cry,
In seeing all the wasted yesterdays that passed
us by.
So we should take each moment and enjoy the
time together.
Because today is here just once,
and then it’s gone forever.
Poem written to Class of 1987 by Marie A. Perry
Look at me, I’m not like you.
We’re far from alike in all that we do.
We don’t go together. Not in style, shape or size.
To say that we fit at all, would be to tell lies.
Yet here we are together, I often see you in the hall.
Sometimes I smile and say hello, though I barely know you at all.
So the days go on, and life does too.
I may see you every day, but I don’t even know who’s you.
I don’t know what makes you special, although I’m sure you must be.
Because everyone’s special in some way, everyone you and me.
