Were you there when the dark eyes lit up 

Shining bright, full of freedom and thanks

Did the cultural kiss and the giving good gifts

Lift your hope to a much higher place

What of when, with a pen in the hand

Beauty flowed, coming straight from the heart

Will you write with by-line, their stories most sublime 

Should these smiles be denied brand-new starts

there are books in my bed
they remind and renew
the wealth of knowledge
and the hard wonder too

there are books at my feet
by my side, in my heart
i long to feel fear
of their danger and art

and this book in my hand
that is covered in dust 
it speaks to my soul
with a passion I trust

After all the gathering
And the love
And the rest
Dr. Maya waived me back
Knowing look in her eye
Yes on your test, she crooned
Miracle as it is in this advanced media age
Despite the education and planning and all
But there was that hope
Then the faith
Congratulations
What will you name it
