Today and Always
We celebrate…The rush of glowing memories, filled with special meaning
Memories drawn in our minds, never to eraseRelationships of love, painted in hearts
We learned with pleasure; we will never forget
We say farewell…As we spread across the country
Strangers will become friends, shaping our futuresNew doors will fill with the bright light of opportunity
We begin…Empowered with the faith, knowledge, and wisdom we gained here,
Sensing the rain of gifts upon us, preparing us to bloomMiracles abound inside each of us
Waiting to take routeWe will trust the magic of beginnings
We thank…Our families, administrators, faculty, staff, and friends
For Our journey together has not happened aloneNor does it end here; it has only begun.
