Graduation Day

the day you've waited for
for years
the day you've worked for
for years
the day you've looked forward to
for years

speeches, awards,scholarships,diplomas
it all comes with the package of "senior"
love and gratitude expressed
to those you love
love and gratitude expressed
to you
and your impact
in the lives of others

wearing the robe
putting on the hat
listening to the valedictorian
accepting your diploma
turning your tassle
throwing your hat into the air

never forget this milestone in your life
it comes only once

Red is Rad

red is rad
red is not bad
red is not a sad
thing to havee
in fact, it's more than a fad

it's so much more

it's a hair color
that takes the form of crazy untameable curls
on top of my head

do the red thing
that's pretty rad
so do the rad thing
that's the red thing
