Graduation Day

The most significant moment of my student’s life
Is the culmination of many years' efforts and sacrifice
A time to march forward, going up the stage in solemn rites
To receive a graduation diploma, my most precious gift, prize.

It's both of great fulfillments and achievements, I believe
Once in a lifetime with my toga, feels crowning with laurel leaves
Set of steps’ completion at another stair of education floor
I’ve surmounted huge phases of school’s life-challenges and endeavors.

Graduation Day flails the reigning banner of my successful race
With flying colors, raised the glorious torch of triumph, I embrace 
Another milestone, a pedestal-crest for a victorious start
Accelerate me higher into my final dream, reaching the brightest star.

Thank you my dear friend Vic. Wonderful feeling I've felt when I graduated in Kindergarten, Grade 6, high school and college. Hoped for the next but after mustering 41 units had the opportunity abroad then no time to pursue completely. Thanks a lot for reading my poem and your belated Congrats on my graduations. God bless you always. Hugs
