College Poems - Poems about College

What do I do? Where do I go? Will there ever be a day When I'm certain of what I know? I compare myself to others far too easily Hoping to become a person I'm never meant to be Does anyone else mourn the death of childhood Just as much as I? Or stand alone in winter's chill And admire the starry sky? Sentimentalism haunts...

My average means I don’t have to take final exams. So my bachelor's degree is a finished product. I cranked it out, all that’s left now is the walk (May 18th). Let’s call it my nearly forgotten masterpiece. My schedule says that I start a 1-year ‘master of public health’ degree in 38 days. It was my mom’s idea. She...

Don’t you have to declare a major before senior year? If I knew you would hound me, I would not have come here. Seriously, Rhea, what is your major?...

I saw you once, across the room, Your eyes met mine, my heart went numb. We were worlds apart, it seemed, A fleeting spark, a distant dream. I wonder if you ever knew, How every thought began with you. We never spoke, but I would wait, For the day our paths would meet by fate. Now time slips by, but I still see The...

I go to the supermarket to buy some mangoes. I’ve had five coffees And spent hours on detangling computer wires. Reciting a poem I remember from fourth grade I opened another three college letters in the mail yesterday. The mailman’s teeth were yellow. We regret to inform you We regret to inform you We regret to inform you that There are no...

I don't remember what I did, it's true, the day before I fell in love with you. I guess I might've been attending Shakespeare class lamenting with Professor Pendergrass the fate of Juliet Capulet and Romeo Montague....

Written by Gail Debole November 26, 2024 Adding "ing" to nouns has taken over the town. English Traditionalists - turn your frowns upside down. "Being an adult" is now one word. We are all "adulting" or haven't you heard? So I guess the next noun to be "verbed" Is that a child is "childing" or is that absurd? All languages evolve through the...

Part 1: The Event Back in younger age days, Going to grad school in Boulder, Colo, was no fun, Lots of course work, research work, little time to socialize, Professor had to meet his grants timeline, One nice Saturday morning, a few grad schoolgirls, Called and invited me to go to Copper mountain ski resort,...

Another summer song has come and gone; my tan lines are fading fast When I walked the dogs this morn I could have sworn, there was frost upon the grass. The farmer’s field is starting to yield pumpkins big and round, Golden leaves from the nearby trees are falling to the ground. I sit on the porch facing north...

They are all about my age. It feels like they are clones of me, but they smile. I feel my key in my back pocket. I step out to pretend to use the bathroom. I almost leave forever. But there’s a forcefield on campus. I only have my backpack. Which has useless books, nothing for survival. I walk around, hearing a football being...

Being not in the college, Not means I will not engage, I don't need some revange, From you we need changes. I have missed those patience, When people ask you question, How yourself trying to explain, On your side to join. I wish day to remain, But won't come back again, Time quickly it has gone, Today you have got won. Am feeling about those noise, Shouting while...
