Eight Days in February

The 90th Anniversary of the Tau Alpha Fraternity

A Sonnet
 
Wizened owls and battle tested eagles
From faraway oceans and distant shores
They all came to roost to bond with equals
To reminisce, lay down their weary oars
 
They’re three generations from eight decades
Here gathered to celebrate ninety years
Of triumphs in memorable crusades
But mourn brothers lost prompting unshed tears
 
So it happens eight days in February
The tankards are full and the cheering loud
The stories bawdy; the brothers merry
Joy and excitement in the happy crowd
 
Alas! Soon the mirth and merriment ends
But new memories formed our dividends
