Poetic Rhyme, Passing Life's Required Course

To the right  

Is where I slept every night  

Welcoming tomorrow’s knowledge might 

Shining bright  

Illuminating intellectual light  

Using my sight  

To see  

Me  

And you together  

Braving life’s tumultuous weather  

Navigating thunderbolt-fast spears  

Not showing, any fears  

Since I am a trained, in how to communicate  

Say what I need to state  

Keeping our romantic conversation going  

As we perform our daily rowing  

Through debatable wakes  

Healthy dialogue we make  

To the left  

I act like a ref  

Hardly, judging many wrongs  

From those suffering a long  

After performing a miscue  

Maybe being a fool  

Heal is what I do 

Not knowing who  

The stranger I just met  

Stomach said was upset  

Prescription I scripted, ‘a hug’ 

Spread rapidly, diagnosed family bug 

Grounded love  

Delivered by, Almighty above  

Chapel sunset  

Is now what we get  

Towering over us all  

As we studied on the mall  

Removing an international wall   

Thoughtful kindness, strategy is the call  

Standing tall  

Keeping alive  

Moral beehive 

Buzz created  

Attitude seeded  

And kneaded  

Baked with flour  

Giving us the power  

Kelly, Farrel and Weigand  

Are the building we had our social academic meetings  

Strength, we each other gave  

And at times we did misbehave  

Claiming lesson learned  

Always concerned  

Being firm  

Completing the eight terms 

Graduating at the end  

Message we did send  

‘It is our honest, truth  

Raising the roof  

Proclaiming degree proof  

Future is ours  

And direct us to the Holy Spirit bar’
