Mascot Tribute Poems

Noble Redskin - Noble Redhawk

written by Richard Nelson, Math Department Chairman,
Retired 29 years a Redskin.

 Noble Redskin

The mighty Redskin stood in place
with folded arms and painted face.
Determined,yes, with furrowed brow
To bring the vic'try then as now.
For many years he served our school,
'twas no exception, t'was the rule,
Providng inspiration when
'twas twelve points down or fourth and ten.
We say goodbye through all our tears.
To you served so well for years.
With baskets sunk, or pitches tossed
Your memory will not be lost.
The bravest of the brave was he,
So sad he can no longer be.
And now there's one last thing to say:
A noble Redskin died today.

 Noble Redhawk

A noble Redskin died today.
A bright young Hawk is born.
The Redhawk soars in Central skies
As if to say, "Don't mourn,"
Now through the years I'll serve you well
Your mascot shall I be.
Through thick and thin we'll fight to win
And you'll be proud of me.
I'll bear your colors with great pride,
The redhawk seems to say.
Onward, upward, never stalling.
Halting never, come what may.
So join me now, new Redhawk friends,
In cheering every Central feat.
For years to come we'll toast our teams
While boasting every vic'try sweet.
