An Education:
I have a vision of my life across the many years
Of a journey I have been on and lessons I have gleaned.
The road traveled has been filled with many highs and lows
From mountains I have conquered, to deep crevices I have stumbled in,
In the shadows of its valleys, I found a worthy prize:
Education, an ever-burning flame to light the darkness.
It has been a deep passion of mine since the beginning
A bright flame that quenched my thirst for knowledge and understanding.
The beauty of knowledge unbound, so vast and so wide
A wonder to behold, filling me with a sense of awe and pride
And so with a sense of duty, I allowed it to consume me
It became my daily quest, a journey I was driven to pursue.
Days turned to weeks, and weeks turned to months,
The flame still burning, my progress ever on the hunt.
I ventured into the depths, ever pushing forward and further on
Seeking out the fruits of knowledge, poised to embrace whatever was to come,
And through the thick and thin, the flame never extinguished
It persisted and overcame, growing brighter and brighter and brighter still.
From here to there, I now stand strong and sure
Gathering experience and knowledge, I've overcome darkness and endured.
Of a journey so long, yet with a flame that remained ever bright
The lessons I've learned, no man or woman ever can take away from me tonight,
For the way forward, I can always now look with hope and bright eyes.
For I have been gifted a gift you cannot put a value upon: An Education.

Everything in life is writable about if you have the outgoing guts to do it, and the imagination to improvise. The worst enemy to creativity is self doubt.
