It's here, I've finally made it,
Graduation is finally here.
I would have never made it,
Without my three musketeers.
The first is my parents who always,
Made me believe in all I could be.
You were always such an inspiration,
And showed me what I couldn't see.
The second is the great teachers,
Who wanted nothing more than me to succeed.
You've helped and been so patient,
And were always around when I need.
And last, but very not least,
Were my friends who kept me afloat.
Whenever I felt I was drowning,
You always came to me by boat.
Without my three inspirations,
I don't know if I'd have made it through.
Now that graduation is near us,
I don't have to wonder what's true.
But what I do want to say to you all,
Is thank you for being you.
I'm so lucky to have you all with me,
You've held me together like glue.
So here I am about to embark,
In a new journey all on my own.
I hope I remember your teachings,
And find my way as you’ve shown.
Today is the day that I graduate,
A day unlike any I've owned.
I know I like to procrastinate,
But this time I definitely won't postpone.
Graduation Poems

Words don't seem enough to say thank you
You have been there for me in every way
I appreciate everything you've done, that's true
Thanks to you I'm seeing this graduation day.
My thanks to you will come by
Giving the best I have each day
All I have learned I will apply
My success is tied to you in every way.
You have impacted my life with your support
You have done so much
You the best nothing short
May someday may I repay as much.
Appreciation Poems
Poet: Kate Summers
I want to thank you,
for your belief in me,
for your patience with me,
for always taking the time to help me,
and for those four little words that helped me when I was discouraged:
"You can do it!"
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
So many times I wanted to quit
But you would say, "just sit"
Then patiently you would show
How it works and how it flows.
You saw something in me
That I never imagined could be.
Your encouragement meant so much
You picked me up when I felt crushed.
You pushed me to do more
And showed patience when I was sore
Your helping attitude was one
That without you, I would not have won.
For all your support I thank you
Much credit to you is due.
I would never have made it thru
Thank you for all you've done and do!
Gratitude Poems
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
Words can never say
Or express how I feel this day
What you mean to me
What you helped me be
The difference you have made
In my mind will never fade
Thank you from the bottom of my heart
For the knowledge and wisdom, you did impart.
Teacher Appreciation Poem
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
This graduation day, I have to say
I appreciated your support in every way.
Your encouragement meant so much to me
You have shaped the person I am and will be.
The future brings new dreams and hope
The wisdom you shared will help me cope.
Thank you for believing in me
I will make you proud, you will see.
