Education

My schooling was over as I was told Now it was time for me of a dream to take hold So I closed all of my books I finished all my classes I put away my pencils and pens and cleaned off my glasses I would use my education to serve me best It was time for the young to earn and the weary to rest I took my education with my diploma in hand One day in this world I will be remembered by this stand But until that day a job I must find That would utilize my education and also my mind No longer a philosopher or a poet would I be I must pull my own weight according to my degree Unto this world I must make a mark As into the world of reality I would embark Since my learning and education is all complete It is time for me now to stand on my own two feet.
