The Commencement is the Beginning
How do you recognize the efforts put forth by graduates?
Commencement speeches
Ought to resound in
The mind. They ought to
Revere the greatness
That the students reached.
Like songbirds chirping
New notes, the address
Should rise and sing the
Splendor of moving
Forward in life. Tales
Of overcoming
Adversity are
Prevalent. Let that
Not be the rite of
Passage but a fact
Of reality.
All of the hurdles,
That students faced and
Surpassed, are not the
Key. It is the act
Of facing them that
Counts, and their power
To defeat them all.
Individuals
Should remember that
The commencement is
The beginning. Roads
Unpaved will rise up
To meet them. And with
The same amount of
The tenacity
That brought them to their
Day of victory
In life, let that bring
Them through the ages.
