Hear me read
the poem as
an MP3 file.
Watch me read
the poem as
an MP4 file.
Glad to graduate and
sad to leave.
Ready and not ready for what's next.
Afloat on buoyant dreams and deep in debt.
Determined both to give and to receive.
Uncertain what the future has in store.
Aware of an enormous inner change
That makes these years worthwhile, a greater range
In which to ramble, seeking to learn more.
Open to a richer world of mind.
Now moving forward as I look
behind.
