All girls in dresses
With hems one inch from the floor
measured while kneeling

Boys will not wear jeans
At school they will be gentlemen
Blue jeans are work clothes

Lunch period will be short
No time for idle social chats
Fish will be served on fridays

All your boring teachers
Always come in the afternoon
Droning you into snoozing

Graduation day
Long gowns,funny flat hats
Facing the future

Oh! You are hitting home with these my friend! And the future looked so bright back then. You are taking me on a very nostalgic trip here and well done, I might add.
Enjoyed, ~Nancy~

So that you won't ever forget me.~

Hey, this is great. When I was in high school, skirts could be no more than 2 inches above the knee. They measured..I always took the long way around to miss the principals office..
