Congratulations to my granddaughter inlaw on becomming a doctor.

Congratulations

I met a woman full of bright
Who often gazed the stars at night
Sailing symbols threw the air
Of all the things that she would dare

She made a promise to herself
And placed the mundane on a shelf
Walked a path of painful straight
This one that she would make her fate

And so she slew the dragon still
With nothing but an iron will
And walked into horizons addle
Grabbed the reigns and sat the saddle

And now she sits her feathered nest
She did her quest and passed the test
And is entitled to her due
All the pleasures of her coup

Congratulations Shawnna dear
You have conquered the giant fear.

Please extend our Congratulations as well...the doctors today are being given some wonderful patient sensitivity courses... I know of several physicians in our area [young, bright, energetic people such as your granddaughter] who even go to the family's home for prayer, and assurance.

I wonder what your Shawnna could do with some of your poems as a healthy Rx, Sy?...

Wonderful tribute to Shawnna, dear Seymour, she will appreciate your beautiful words ..... holding such a profound truth. Sacrifices are always needed when a goal has to be reached. And not everybody has this iron will.
Beautiful!
My compliments to Shawnna.
Love, Margherita

Seymour, this is such a beautiful tribute to your Shawnna. She will love that you are going to present your poem at her graduation party. I know that you all are so proud of her. That is a great accomplishment that I'm sure took a lot of hard work and sacrifices.
Give her our congratulations, too.
Hugs

Brilliant people surround themselves with the same, so its no surprise to me that your family is full of bright spots and beacons.
Lovely poetic gifting of your heart Sy-babes.
Congrats to all, thank you for sharing the joy.

Sy,
Well it seems class begets class! Congratulations to you both... You wear your pride well.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

To all my friends I thank you much,
I have no time to keep in touch
Another two or three more days
And I'll be back to my old ways.
