Valedictory victory of the kindergarten class,
remember that the greatness of your glory soon will pass.
I'll come along in first grade, and I'll force you to salute;
if I should reign 'til second grade, why that would still be moot.
For no one will remember the rank in which we rate--
other matters matter more when we all graduate.
And if a Tiffany window should adorn your palace bright,
may it remind you of the leaves that dabble in the light.
