Quotes about Graduation, page 9
Proud Father
My son, at your birth
You are like a jewel
Instills an innate mirth
An aura ringing a bell
My son, as a kid
You are creative
As you always did
Arts quite perceptive
My son, as adolescent
You act as regular lad
With a mature ascent
Make me feels glad
My son, as you now stride
On this graduation installs
A gained triumphant pride
Flowing in me like waterfalls

Too slow to even kill myself
4 years ago
I was supposed
to be gone
to have jumped
to have fallen
down the cliff
into the wild
Mediterranean
crabs jellyfish sharks,
i was supposed
to become the meal
the dead drunkard
the nerd that flipped out,
it was graduation night
it was long
and i was tired,
why did he have to
grab me
and
pull me back

At Last, I Stand
In the dawn of our disciple,
in the midst of our wake,
I find it hard to suffer,
for an inconceivable stake.
Yet, in the hours of conception,
my mind is crazed, inception,
like the start of something new,
my life is in graduation.
Passersby, will never see,
a slightly jealous man,
but only as you see me,
but here, yes here,
At last, I am.
At last... I stand.

Don't Change
For Isabel on her graduation
Don’t change one tiny little thing.
Remain exactly as you are;
Confident and bright,
Ready to take wing.
Don’t grow an inch or change your hair.
Remain exactly as you are;
Beautiful and kind
A rare and precious find.
Don’t change your ways or go too far.
Remain exactly as you are;
Faithfilled and true
For there’s only one of you.

graduation Day
-GRADUATION DAY--
The mist hung slight
Above the ground.
Students all were
Scurrying 'round.
With testing done
The college plight,
Such merriment
It t'was a sight.
As mortar boards
Flung into the air
Their joy and sadness
Each to share.
Forward as their
Lives would go,
And where they lead

Stars in My Future
Lit candles glowing in night skies
Are stars
Announcing heavenly banquets
And prodding me to brave up every storm
That endangers the voyage of my life
By lighting up my soul
With songs and smiles
Floodlights that dispel gloom here
While looking forward to ascending up there
The ultimate prize on graduation here
Attending celestial gala nights
Accompanying the Father.
(2002)

Wellness of Future
Midst of sunrise i see shaded
The shadow of a man i thought
I previewed and look good
Said that it was not to my future
He looked at my graduation
Which set my new future.
I don't know when to come
Then maybe more to come when i am weak
All of us dream of a better future
But sometimes we do not manage time
Otherwise it would God or we neglect
We cannot blame the weather.

Alice The Artist ('this Is Art')
She paints first the floor
Then the wall behind her
The adjacent wall
Stops not at the first quart
No shes goin for 6,
Six
Six
Six
Overtime
Or going untill she cant anymore.
But no she doesnt consider this suicide
This night is her graduation from person to artist
Red everywhere. Alice is covered in blood
wishing for a crypt.
So she paints a picture worth a thousand words.
And her last words?
'This is art'
