. . . The Last Dance

Its the last dance

and as we gather

once more to enhance

our linguistic endeavor

we are reminded that

all to soon

it will be over

Thank you Tovah for persevering with your struggling students. For not giving up on us, for continuing to challenge us and criticize us in your inimitable fashion.

Even when we felt disheartened, you spoke to us through your journalistic idealism, and created the spark in our souls again, to try once more to capture our readers' minds and hearts.

You moved us to listen to the music of our souls, and express what lay hidden within. We hopefully will continue to dance to the music of creativity, even beyond your leading us, in this . . . last dance.
