“praise about graduation”

Raise high the banners, let them gleam and dance—  
This day is stitched with promise, golden thread  
Woven through years that gave us every chance  
To lift our hearts, where dreams and courage led.  

Caps rise like birds set free into the sky,  
Tassels swinging tales of sleepless nights  
And mornings bright with effort, purpose, why  
We pressed through fear and reached these shining heights.  

The halls remember laughter, echoed feet  
On marble floors, and voices eager, young—  
Here, friends were found, and challenges were sweet  
As bitter truth, when earnest songs were sung.  

To you, proud graduate, these cheers belong—  
You grew in wisdom, sturdy, brave, and strong.  
And if you falter as you journey on,  
Recall this milestone: how far you’ve gone.  

Though endings come, so too do openings new;  
Today's applause sings hope that carries you—  
For every tear and test, each late-night page,  
Has shaped the author now who owns the stage.
