Graduation Day

All the dreams that have come and gone;
All the memories that will live on and on.
High School days we thought would last forever;
All the time we thought we’d be together.
Time seemed to slip by and then go away;
Now it’s graduation day.
So many times we laughed and we shared;
So many times we said I love you and I care.
The happiness, the sadness and the fights galore;
All these things were wrapped into one and more.
Time seemed to slip by and then go away;
Now it’s graduation day.
So many times wondering if we’ll remember what we’ve learned;
The credits, the honors and the scholarships we’ve earned.
The trips, the sneak days, cutting a class;
For all these years we thought they’d never pass.
Time seemed to slip by, and then go away;
Now it’s graduation day.
And so my friends I want to dedicate this to you;
For the good times and the sad, yes there’s been a few of those too.
The tears streak down my face, the memories to stay;
Because now my friends, it’s graduation day. By Jaci Rae
