Oh my!.. Graduation day!
is only 5 more days away...
I am proud.. that I can be...
a part of the USA NAVY...
I have come.. a long long way...
from that first.. sign up day...
from learning skills.. and discipline...
to disciplining.. my skills within...
from slouching.. to standing tall...
now running.. where I use to crawl...
getting up.. at the break of dawn...
never time to stretch and yawn..
and I've learned a few marching songs...
and I now put things.. where they belong..
Indeed, I am most proud to say...
That I'm proud of myself..
this Graduation Day.
