Two Poems from our Graduations Poetry Collection

 
 
GRADUATION PICTURE
   
Author: Sarah Bolton
   
Poem:
GRADUATION PICTURE
   
  She sent me a picture,
Taken in shades of
Brown and beige,
Muted but sharp.

Her back against the
Lines in the floor,
Her bare feet crossed,
Her smile wide and freeing,
Like the horizons she faces.

In her sensing hands,
She holds her flute,
Silver in sound and sight.
The music engraved in it
Struggles against the flatness of
Photo paper.

Her hair short and curly,
The picture of a girl
Who stepped from the 1920’s
Into jeans and painted toenails.

I learned something
From that simple image.
You can’t embrace a photograph,
Or whisper words of wisdom
Into the ear of a paper doll.

GRANDAD DODD
   
Author: Vikki Johnstone
   
Poem: GRANDAD DODD
   

Tomorrow will be a special day
Perfect for you in every way
For you are a very special man
Who helps in every way you can

Tonight we want you to have a rest
One night off for the very best
Just relax and have some fun
That's the wish from everyone

Have a dance and have a drink
Or sit down and have a think
Enjoy yourself and let time fly
Here's the very reason why

Friends and family have travelled miles
All of which are wearing smiles
We're all here to say to you
We want you to wear one too

I hope you know we all love you
For all of us this love is true
And we would all just like to say
Hope you have a brilliant day.
