The Graduation

As the morning sun pushed in, nice and shinning
The day he could find his mom, happy and gleaming
After twenty years of long hauling
The old lady can watch it all flowering
Dressed in black, the son stood dazzling
And the whole college held him complementing
But he gave credits to his widowed mother's parenting
It seemed all her pain and struggle paying
As he got graduated with outstanding
After years, all got to see mom proudly smiling
And at last, the day had father's soul resting
