"Okay you guys! Bunch together now; I want everyone to remember this day forever!" Sally's mother says as the just graduated girls of 2006 smile for the camera.

Afterwards, Sally goes over and hugs her mom, so happy on this beautiful day. Worried, her mother asks her, "How are you doing baby? I know that Mr. Keating's death couple weeks ago have been hard to deal with. Do you need anything from me?"

"Not at all, thank you."

From behind Sally came two arms and a happy face, "She's got everything she needs Mrs. Perkins!"

Sally turns around to hug Lydia, whom she has spent a great deal of time with the past nine months.

"Congratulations Lyd; you got that scholarship to University of Indiana!"

"I still can't believe it; I'm gonna be a music major! Carnegie Hall is just around the corner; soon I'll be playing in a real orchestra!"

"You're not there yet," says a voice at Lydia's side. She smiles as she hugs Jay, whose still her boyfriend.

"I'm so proud of you hun," he tells her sweetly.

"Yeah, well we all did well," she replies honestly.

Observantly, Jay looks over at Sally, who is seriously staring him down. "Do you know what you're going to do when you go to college Joshua?" she tells him curiously.

"Hey, I'll figure it out when it get there next fall. Come here," and he reaches over for a hug. Laughing, Sally hugs him back; this past year they haven't grown to be the best of friends, but she finds that teasing him is very satisfactory as a friendship.

About fifteen feet in the other direction, Amergin and Tacey are alone kissing as though nothing could keep them apart. However, a hand pushes them away from each other and Kylar smiles, "Could you two keep your paws off of each other for like two seconds; I want to take your girlfriend away for a moment Gadsby."

"Not too long now," Amergin grins handsomely.

"What's up?" Tacey asks.

Kylar looks around to make sure no one is listening, and then whispers, "We're having the you-know-what at you-know-where tonight. Make sure you're there."

And before anyone knew it, it was that night. All the girls sat around the bonfire in the old chapel just as they had all that year, listening to Tacey and Kylar's new hit. They had joined forces early on that year as a jazz group. They have been very successful too; the local radio station plays their album regularly.

After finishing, the girls all clap, and then Adrienne stands up, "I don't have a poem ready or anything, but I have two announcements to make. First off, I got the results back from the film festival about the movie I made last summer entitled, A Summer's Day; starring the lovely Tacey Rosette and her Amergin Gadsby."

The girls all clap, and then look at her impatiently. Slyly, Adrienne holds the suspense a little longer, and then blurts out, "I won the film contest!"

Everyone cheers and Sally gets up and hugs Adrienne happily. Then, she goes to sit back down, but Adrienne says, "Hold it Perkins! You're apart of the second announcement; say up here."

Sally goes over to her confused, and then Adrienne speaks, "If it wasn't for this girl, we would have never started up the first girls' Dead Poet's Society in the first place. Furthermore, we all probably wouldn't have even gotten to know each other the way we did if this hadn't of happened. And even more so, this society has inspired us to go off to different places to study to be great things. Jazz musicians," Adrienne looks over at Kylar and Tacey, who smile.

"A professional musician in an orchestra," Lydia nods as the girl continues, "A youth pastor," Kirsten grins cheerfully, "An inspirational minister," Jamie hides her face with embarrassment. "And then there's me; going to University of South Carolina to become a movie director. Now, the reason I say everyone except you Sally, is because we've all decided what we want to do with our lives and are going to college to excel in it. But you, as we all have talked about with you these past several months; you've said you have no idea what's in store for you in this life. So, you've decided to go travel the world first, before you decide on anything. And, since we are your closest friends, we've made a little something for you. Hit it Kirsten!"

In the back of the chapel, Kirsten turns on a slide show, just as Kylar puts out the bonfire. Sally, who had no idea, looks over her shoulder at a big white sheet, hanging so a movie can be shown.

She sits down, just as it starts. Turing on the speakers, Adrienne watches as Sally sees all of her friends on camera, wishing her well. Other parts of the movie include their time during the course of their senior year. Finally, the movie ends, and everyone goes over to hug Sally. Finally, she tells them to sit back down, as she tries to form words.

"Wow, I wasn't expecting that. You guys don't know how grateful I am of all of you; thank you so much for everything. As you all know, sadly, this will be our last Dead Poet's meeting. And, I wanted to say a few things about each of you, through this." Sally held up her DPS journal and looked at the girls, "I know you all have your books with you, look at them a moment.

"Jamie, your journal is the color red. Red, as interpreted, shows passion. I hope you use that in your upcoming ministry. Next is Kirsten, yours is yellow. It shows optimism, which I know you've greatly shown this past year as your brother's health has been improving. Kylar Sweeny, your black journal shows sophistication and elegance; your expressions through poetry have shown that awesomely. Tacey, you have orange. I know its not the best color, but it means emotional and creative; thoughtful, just like you. My pal Adrienne, yours is violet. For a person, it is someone who is seeking something artistic in life, just as you are through the art of film like tonight's. And lastly, Lydia, who has the color blue. Just like our friendship, you have shown loyalty and faithfulness, in all of us. Each of you girls is so different and amazing; wherever I end up, I'll always remember you."

"Hey," Jamie spoke up, "What about your journal. You never told us how yours relates to you."

"Green; it stands for someone who is reliable, and loving." Lydia told her. She looked at Sally, who smiled.

"As we've always done, a poem will be read before we leave. I have one prepared if you all don't mind. It's by William Shakespeare:

'When to the sessions of sweet silent thought

I summon up remembrance of things past,

I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought,

And with old woes new wail my dear times' waste:

Then can I drown an eye, unus'd to flow, For precious friends hid in death's dateless night,

And weep afresh love's long since cancell'd woe,

And moan the expense of many a vanish'd sight:

Then can I grieve at grievances foregone,

And heavily from woe to woe tell o'er

The sad account of fore-bemoaned moan,

Which I new pay as if not paid before.

But if the while I think on thee, dear friend,

All losses are restor'd and sorrows end.' "
