THE SWEET GIRL GRADUATE.
Standing with reluctant feet
Where the brook and river meet
See the sweet girl graduate
Waiting, watching for her fate;
See her bright and eager eyes
Searching for her future prize,
For the prize that comes to her
AS the worlds best minister
Will she take and run one man.
Or will she, by another plan,
Consider that she has been sent
To run the whole darn government?
