Aug 2017
Like scenes from childhoods memory,
today plays out in slow motion,
with smiles and hugs and congratulations
on the day you get your diploma.

Though the path has been rocky at times,
fueled by hormones and arguments sake,
the love and honor I feel today,
is causing this parents heart to quake.

So as you walk the stage,
and climb a rung into the world,
be proud of your accomplishments
today wave your flag unfurled.

But remember life is a journey,
and this is but one of many strides,
do your best in everything you can,
and I will be filled with pride.
