To the graduate who makes me
smile Or melt away whenever he comes near, The handsome one, with lovely eyes and hair, Hearts leaning toward his sunlight all the while: Even I, who am your friend, lean toward you, Gripped with pride in all that you have done, Relishing the compliments you've won, Alight with all the ways I might reward you. Draw your own sweet dreams. I wish you well Upon your graduation and beyond. And if I could, I'd wave my magic wand That happiness for you I might compel, Even as I think what time might tell.
