Dear Rose:

RHS Class of 1962
Since 1962, our little worlds have changed,
Among many other things, new technology reigns.
Though we’ve grown older, and in some cases, apart,
We’ve been able to reconnect and share what’s in our heart,
With dear classmates-friends and acquaintances—of yore.
We’re informed about their lives and we’re “in” on the lore.
Because of you, Rose, and your fabulous Lantern “blog”,
We are updated and entertained and steered out of the fog
About who’s doing what and….well…the who, what, where, why
Of the kids we’ve known and loved from many years gone by.
Your excellent work has clued us in our lives……
Our ups and downs, the high-points, the dives.
We know of the success, the sadness, the woes,
The happiness of some and for others, the lows…
You’ve kept us abreast of the “where are we now”
The “what are we doing and with whom and how”
You’ve worked so hard, and created such a great site
That we can’t imagine being without it, try as we might.
We wouldn’t know half of the things that we do,
About each other, and all because of you.
You know, it’s thrilling indeed to recall the past
And linger over memories too fleetingly past,
But we’ve in the present, and it’s better by far
To experience today, our lives as they are.
It’s fun to hear news from Joanne, Dora and Joe,
And Ruthie, Richard and so many others we know.
I love reading the comments and opinions of others,
We really are family, like sisters and brothers.
And to know that there are many dear friends out there
Who commiserate and empathize with us, and who really CARE.
Well, it’s just awesome and so are you, Rose
You are terrific, and your reputation grows.
We’re lucky you’re with us, right here and now,
So let us salute you. Please, stand up, and take a bow.
We really appreciate your wonderful effort and time
And we want to say Thank You, the Lantern is sublime!
