Kindergarten Graduation

June 17, 2019

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. Since now is the time many schools in the U.S. are having their graduations, the theme for this week is graduation.

I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com .

A kindergarten graduation poem for parents about the importance of the ceremony:

Kindergarten graduation

Is the end of a beginning.

Now they start the numbered grades,

Dancing through the years of grace.

Ends require celebration,

Rituals of well-earned winning,

Giving kids the accolades

A dancer needs to keep the pace.

Rejoice, then, in the raw sensation,

The shyness bursting, rapture spinning.

Eventually, the glory fades,

Nor will it ever be replaced.
