Seniors,
as i sit here at my desk studying for the last exam of my Junior year, i am reminiscent of my time at Leeds High School. All the classes, the friends, the good times, all come rushing back. I sit in an indifferent state of emotion. I am saddened to see my friends leave the halls of leeds high school, but i am happy to see them finally be free and go out into a big sky where they are a small but signifigant star in the night sky. As they robe themselves in their kelly green robes and walk down the stadium field, i will remember their names, their voices, and the light they brought to this sometimes dark and dreary place. As they walk down the field with the almamater playing i will remember all the times i looked up to them, sought their guidance, and their wisdom. With diplomas in hand i will remember their effort, their initiative, and the struggles that brought them to their triumphs. As their tassles are shifted I will remember their impatience, their eagerness, and their wait. A single tear will roll down my cheek. If not on my face then my heart. I will miss my brothers and sisters... i will miss them all. Though, they will not be forgotten. Each day that I walk down the halls they did just a year earlier, i will run my fingers down the walls. I will feel their presence in the bricks that support this institution. I will her their voices in the the empty and draft hallways when no one walks them. I will see their names in the books they read from and dusty chalk boards. I will see their faces in the windows of each classrooms doors.I will remember their parking spaces, i will remember their lockers, I will remember their impact, their contribution, the person they left here with us forever. I will miss you always seniors i will miss you always
