Graduations

It’s the 26th of August
The year two thousand and ten
I’m in this park at Dartmouth
Where I can remember when
My darling precious grandchild
On her Graduation Day
Was handed her diploma
And she was on her way
Some 15 months ago...
For about 9 weeks in my home
Then off to San Francisco
Where she could work for pay
And a trip way off to Europe
As part of her working day
And now we’re with her in Vermont
For her brother’s wedding day.
