ODE TO PALM BEACH HIGH SCHOOL CLASS OF 1953


We are all very proud and happy to be,

Members of the memorable class of 1953.

We hope that we will always be glad,

to recall the friendships that we have had.

We avow to remain heartfully close to each other,

And keep respect like any loving sister or brother.

We want to live the remainder of our days,

Caring about our friends in all possible ways.

Surely, as we are together again and again,

Our kindly meetings will result in a gain.

Hopefully, we will enjoy some good luck and happiness,

Each time that we gather to laugh and express.

May we come together for a long while,

To share our lasting love with a smile.

Even though our good times are of the past,

May the beautiful rememberances forever last.

May all of our future seasons be vernal,

And our fond relationships be eternal.

Jack also wrote a Poem about the "Thursday Breakfast Friends", who meet in WPB on Thursday's for breakfast.

The Friends

FOR THE THURSDAY BREAKAST GANG
IT'S A JOYOUS MORNING MEETING
THAT STARTS OUT WITH A BANG;
AND YOU CAN BET
THAT AT THE ONSET
YOU'LL RECEIVE A HAPPY GRTEETING !
ONCE THE LAUGHTER HAS BEGUN
IT IS FOLLOWED BY FUN.
ALL THE WHILE
YOU WILL SMILE
ALONG WITH EVERYONE.
YOU CAN LOOK ANYWHERE
AND KNOW THAT THERE
WILL BE MANY A FRIEND
FROM BEGINNING UNTIL THE END.
WE GATHER AT THE START OF DAY
KNOWING THAT WE WILL STAY
UNTIL WE HAVE HAD TIME TO SAY
A FEW WORDS TO EVERYONE
BEFORE THE MORNING IS DONE
AND WE GO ON OUR MERRY WAY.
