Graduation During Coronavirus: A Poem

5/13/2020

Picture
Finishing school during the coronavirus has evoked mixed feelings, and frankly, is anti-climactic. But, this morning’s sunshine and crisp air cleared my head and inspired me to write this poem.
 
This spring, thousands will graduate
 
But the coronavirus will not define our fate
 
Although we won’t walk across a stage
 
It is time to turn the page
 
Brains filled with new knowledge
 
From towering stacks of books bought in college
 
Will guide us through life’s next chapter
 
And journeys unknown thereafter
 
Most will celebrate their achievement from home
 
And tune in to virtual commencements via Google Chrome
 
Graduation-in-place is an unusual way
 
But it’s important to do so until the virus is at bay
 
This semester is one to remember
 
But, fellow graduates,
 
Know that this adversity makes you stronger than ever.
