Poem title: On with the show, the final stairwell, the final farewell.
“We are like moths to the flame, hungry mouths yearning to feel some nourisment we’d never had before.
We are as fire. Burning brightly but for a moment, then we sputter within ignition, letting our minds transcend reality.
We are humbled, standing on that stairwell that leads to the future of our lives.”
“We are like candles, the wax slowly waning, the curtain slowly lifting to reveal and revel all the beauty we hold inside.
We are the makers and the creators, we are the lead and followers, we are them, we are they, we are one.”
“We are the risers of the morn, the followers of the sun, the deep pain that beckons, ye gods help us all.
We are the strengths and the courage, the fears and the regrets, the risen path that stands above all others.
We are the many, we are the few, we are who we are and for that I love all of you.”
“Though it is late at the hour of the morn, I can’t help but feel that while it’s all over, there is silence.
A stillness that comes to us now, because the term is up and the echoes of laughter stills.”
“There is much to be said, much to be read, things to look upon and reflect.
Life has held us all in it’s grip, life has perhaps let a little of it slip.
We are they, we are them, we are the voices of reason.”
“As the curtain falls, so to does the stars.
The screams for encore fade in our ears.
The world plunges for we will never know another class quite like ours.
No, this is the stairwell, this is the farewell to all of the guests.”
“With this final faded sign, with this final efforted write, I tip my hat to you and say.
May you all have a merry Christmas and a wonderful new year.
May you always remember the joy we shared, may you always remember how our hair rose up high when our stress levels went up.
Thank you one and all for who you are and what you have accomplished.
Farewell, farewell, As Shakespeare himself puts it, Parting is such sweet sorrow.
To know that there is a tomorrow, but to accept it without all of you is tough.
So farewell friends, all whom are new. Be bright in your path, be bright in all you do.”
