Higher Education

A poem of returning

Going

To the place where

I first learned to play

The game of life

And win

Towering oaks

And green lawns

I traversed them all

Gained

The greatest education:

Learn to find friends

They remain

Constant

Across miles

And continents

I found a love

She remains

With me

Over oceans

We have flown

Today

We hold hands

Return together

To the place

We began

I am nervous,

So is she, but

We do together

What we once did alone

And that is a beautiful

Thing
