Eighth Grade Graduation

A teen aged eye view

Like a spider's eye

Many faceted

A kaleidoscope of

Friends and faces

Every event looming

Larger than life.

Each step seeming to be

A giant leap for mankind.

Every ending

A little death.

Shy and excited in the same moment.

Graduation-

Bounding into the unknown

Ready for the adventure

Of the wider world

Of high school.
