Thank you for being where all these years went.
Happiness comes from the people we are,
And so much of what we are now comes from here,
Nearby our hearts still, our minds still ajar.
Knowledge is wealth that can never be spent.

Years from this day, as we search for some star,
Over us clouds, our harried heads bent,
Unthinking, some long-ago wind will skies clear.
