As a child and growing
  we are given the chance
  to learn with family and with fun
  
  our yesterdays ...
  pass today ...
  we begin our future.

As a teenager showing
  in our music, our dance
  to earn responsibilities done

  our presence ...
  pass today ...
  we give to our future.

As a young adult knowing
  its time to take a stance
  we yearn independency for one

  our tomorrows ...
  pass today ...
  we accept our future.


This is written for OCEAN BEAUTY,
a member who graduates on the 15th
of June, 2002.

It has been a pleasure to read, to
write and to share your yesterdays
and now look forward to hearing
about your tomorrows.
Wishing you the best of luck ... always.

create an addiction .... share a smile!!

   Thank you so much for writing this poem! It means a lot to me, just like you do. I've always loved the way you can manipulate words to make them into beautiful poems. You're wonderful in every way. Love you always!
