Ode to the Graduate

My best friend and baby brother is graduating. I wanted to do something special for him and write him a little something. Enjoy this moment with us!

As you walk across that stage,

Know the world may not be ready for your gift.

As you walk across that stage,

Know your ancestors look down and smile.

As you walk across that stage,

Know that God put you there.

As you accept your diploma,

Believe in your gift to the world.

As you accept your diploma,

Believe in your ancestors’ dreams of a better day.

As you accept your diploma,

Believe that God will keep you.

On this day,

The world looks on in amazement.

On this day,

I look on in awe.

On this day,

I am made better.

As you walk across that stage,

I know the world better get ready for your gift.

As you walk across that stage,

I know I look and smile.

As you walk across that stage,

I know God has an unimaginable plan for you.

As you accept your diploma,

I believe in your gift to us all.

As you accept your diploma,

I believe our ancestors couldn’t imagine all you will accomplish.

As you accept your diploma,

I believe in the God that made you.

On this day,

I am motivated by my inspiration.

On this day,

You have only just begun.

On this day,

God has smiled at His child.
