Graduation, Imagination
As you sleep the night away
You imagine yourself done with school
Following your dreams
of
Being a parent
A doctor
A nurse
An advocate
An inventor
A scientist,
An Actor
A Dancer
A singer
A report
Your alarm clock goes off
You snap back into the world of the living
Again you’re up just past 6am,
you took a shower,
picked the right outfits,
dragged yourself to school,
Made it through days of never-ending classes,
Teachers coming,
Teachers going,
You survived,
Clashes and drama with friends,
You passed,
Test, after test, after test,
Just hoping you’ll be among the best,
Elementary,
High School,
College,
Grad School,
Each step you take,
Keeps you in line,
No time to rest,
Because what comes next is lifes real test,
Celebrate your successes
Pat yourself on the back
Happy graduation
