In the woods, there was a road,
A road that belonged to a mentor.
One day, I was passing by,
And when I got to an intersection,
I did not know where to go.
When this mentor appeared,
I was surprised,
But the mentor told me,
"Don't be afraid.
You looked lost.
I am here to point you
In the right direction.
If you go to my right,
You'll be going to where everyone's childhood dreams come true.
You'll meet new people,
And see many interesting things.
If you go to my left,
You'll be going to a place where no one wants to go.
No one's childhood dreams will come true,
And won't be able to see new people
Or see many interesting things.
You'll be all alone if you take this road."
I took a minute to think,
And then I took the road to their right.
As I was walking,
I had on a black robe,
A square hat,
And was holding a piece of paper in my hand.
I finally did it.
Graduating from college.
Class of 2009.
Author notes
I already wrote one for my high school graduation, so I reviced it into a college graduation one
