Graduation Poems

Bright Future

By Joanna Fuchs

Now that you’ve graduated
Nothing can stop you now.
You’ve worked hard to get your diploma;
It’s time to take a bow.
Congratulations graduate!
Your future looks strong and bright.
May you achieve the things you hope for
And have a life of sheer delight.

 

Awesome Achievement

By Joanna Fuchs

Your college graduation
Fills us with love and pride.
We always knew that you could do
Whatever you really tried.
It's a long and challenging journey
To get a college degree,
But you wouldn't quit it, you just went and did it,
And we're beaming affectionately.
Your achievement is awesome, (graduate's name);
You've worked hard and you've passed the test.
We love you so, and we want you to know,
We think you're the very best!

 

The Special Door

By Joanna Fuchs

It took a lot of work,
Time, and persistence, too,
To achieve the important goal
That you set out to do.
That effort now pays off,
The world now offers more.
To you, new graduate,
It opens a special door.
Congratulations (Name of graduate),
You did it all; you made it through.
You took your first step toward success,
And (I'm/we're/everyone's) so proud of you!

 

A New Beginning

By Joanna Fuchs

As you make a new beginning in your life, graduate,
Be aware of important things you didn’t learn in school:
As you pursue your dreams,
Remember to take time to help and serve others
Even if doing so slows you down a little.
As you explore and develop your unique talents,
Remain humble,
Realizing that your special abilities
Are gifts from God.
As life hands you challenges, welcome them
As ways to become smarter and stronger.
As you acquire material things,
Know that your most important possessions
Are honesty, integrity,
And the desire to make a difference.
Congratulations, graduate.
May your new path take you where you want to go
And also bring you pleasant surprises
