Great Graduation Day

Great Graduation Day Looked at long hall we had followed, Which was noble and also hallowed; Graduation Day aisle did walk down, While we would wear cap and gown. Happy tears held back hard we tried; Spoke with eloquence and electrified, All those around who we would amaze, And at end we then gave God praise. Treasured thoughts with you do share; Last thing done was throw caps in air; From the hallowed hall are finally free; Escaped and returned back to society. Often do look back at Graduation Day, And memories of it there still will stay; Whatever we do and a big breath take, Will always be done for our Lord's sake.

Remember doing this receiving a Bachelor's then a Master's. These have been all bygone days when I had received much prays; Each diploma on a table lays.

Wonderful couplet, James - wish I could write one like this, my friend! I always enjoy graduations - that awesome sense of accomplishment and of course Pomp and Circumstance. Hugs. Pandita
