| Now Latin is a dead language, At least thatís what I'm told. But just don't tell that to Ginny - I wouldn't be so bold! With her stories of firsthand travel, She makes Latin come alive. Old Pompeii becomes very real and near, I can just hear the ancilla jive! I can see Caecilius leave for work Past Cerberus in the street lying. And Metella ordering the household chores With Grumio and Clemens complying. Now Ginny's patience is legendary. Never a cross word from her lips. Only praise and good things do we hear Even when we make some slips. Thank you to each auxilium And homework helpers, too. So many people helping In thanking I'm sure to miss a few. So thank you Ginny, Barbara, Jane And all of you behind the scene Your work is so appreciated In helping our old minds stay keen. |
