Miracle Man
5/5/2024

Your unknown future,
lies directly ahead.
From vacated nest,
to now earning your bread.

life is now a ladder,
you’ll start to climb.
Every chance to excel,
should become your showtime.

Your experience starts you,
at the very bottom rung.
Most days become routine,
another song verse to be sung.

Always moving upward,
is the name of life’s game.
You cant climb a ladder,
with both hands gripping the same.

Daniel Henry Rodgers Date: 5/9/2024 8:39:00 AM Hello Tom, A powerful message for a graduating class! The "Miracle Man" title sets a high bar, balanced by the reality of starting at the "bottom rung." The line "Every chance to excel, / should become your showtime" is inspiring, urging them to seize opportunities. The ending with "gripping the same" is a strong call to embrace change and keep learning. I enjoyed reading very much. Blessings, Daniel
