Graduation Poems from Teachers
Graduation Poems from teachers or parents for other years?
As we lurch toward adulthood, there are milestones that require noting. Here are some from Kathleen who remembers her own high school graduation fondly, and the trip to Michigan's Upper Penninsula to see the Mackinac Bridge. Quite excited, she was unable to write any limericks at all, except one for an eighth grade graduation, in which the vocabulary was quite straightforward, for the tiny plane, with its propellers, tossed like feather upon the breeze, leaving her to doubt the veracity of Bernoulli's Equation.
However, the experience taught her to become an active participant on such flights, so instead of writing love poems, or anything else for that matter, she now assists the pilot by keeping a firm grip upon her armrests, and pulling the airplane up by dint of sheer willpower.
Challenge Phrase: Graduation Poems From TeachersTo my classroom, you came, tentative
By year’s end, fairly argumentive.
A word to the wise
College campuses thrive
On students less fermentative.
As you leave the campus this day,
The next campus takes you away.
Only mere weeks from now
Dew-eyed freshman,
allow For good sense.
Now just focus, don’t spray.
Challenge Phrase: Love Poems On Graduation
You always were the class clown.
When I saw you in your cap and gown
Today, you were changed,
It seemed, to me, strange,
I love you, my heart’s upside-down.
Should you be the graduate, one who has nearly jumped the last hoop at university, spanned the last hurdle, yea, verily, grasped the brass ring
...well it is difficult for us to contain our excitement...
Perhaps, by and by, we will get around to graduation poems for the small fry.
In fact, Parents' Night is being held in the Virtual Early Childhood Education Center next door and that is most amusing as every teacher knows.
However, the 8th grade graduation marks an important milestone in young person’s life so here is
another graduation limerick or two, for the younger graduate, including 8th grade themes...
Challenge Phrase: Graduation Limerick
You Have Grown
As you walk cross the stage, I feel pride.
Standing tall, shoulders back, and clear-eyed.
As a man, you have grown,
Now you reap what you've sewn
Today, all the world opens wide.
Mettle Untempered?
Your mettle untempered, untried
You started in school, I'll confide,
In this warm afterglow
Only four years ago
I thought that your chances were fried.
Graduation poems from teachers, friends, and parents, but as for love poems...
you will require different sort of limerick...
