Majestic, aging pines...
Stationed about the hill,
Gaze out upon the grounds,
The knoll, settling
Its body firmly for miles.
Often austere...listless
Yet, it is the ground
Of seasoned beauty.
A place of serenity
For many to enjoy;
Giving a home to the school
Used by students...
Twenty-three thousand students,
Knowing the terrain
As an integral part
Of the Year of the Golden Flashes.
[/B]
Fall's arrival is marked
By drum beats, cheers,
Players on the grid iron
Battle for the prize:
The muscle straining score.
Spectators
Enlivened by the rush and
Meshing of sound, color
Players drive to score,
Or hold their ground.
Excitement
Reaches a fever pitch,
Then time becomes master.
In this...
The Year of the Golden Flashes.[/B]
Sharing,[/B]
Camaraderie - true, honest.
Enjoying it to the finish,
Being there together
Is what it's all about.
Knowing that each moment
Reveals a special treasure,
A satisfaction of achieving
The reward; laughter...or
The reward of an embrace.
Knowing lasting friendships
Content with times past.
Anticipating those to come.
Each, contributing memories
That provide a longevity
To the Year of the Golden Flashes.
