St. John’s Reunion 2009
St. John, St. John your spirit calls
Melodious in the wind.
An echo through the distant lands
Trumpets your memories strong.
Historic days etched in the minds
Recalled since Fedon’s time,
Will shine again like Fergie’s light
To open young ones’ sight.
When sons and daughters hear your voice
They’ll grace your soil once more.
Like fish nets cast out in the deep
Will draw your children’s feet.
Momentous event soon to be
Good concept! Praise is due.
St. John’s will unfold like a sheet
And spark when old friends meet.
Wendell DeRiggs.
