Poetry Sunday ~ My Graduate

Ex. 40: 36And when the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the children of Israel went onward in all their journeys:

My Graduate

2014

Out of my womb, placed in my arms

Not yet touched by worldly charms.

I counted ten fingers then ten toes

Traced your lips, then tapped your nose.

I saw in you complete perfection

I cradled you with motherly affection.

I watched you as you began to walk

Loved when you babbled thinking it talk.

I tended your journey as you strode

Lending you strength with every load.

I gave you love and watched you grow

I did all I could, just so you know.

Today is the day I hold pride in my hand

You get your diploma and there you’ll stand.

A flip of the tassel, to the future you’ll stroll

Taking on life and your new manly roll.

Go with God always letting Him guide

Forever I’m here for you to confide.

My work in you now seems complete

March to life’s drum, your very own beat!

Congratulations Adam on a job well done!
