The day we have all been waiting for has come
Spreading our wings
Preparing to fly
Can you believe its over so soon?
Friendships we have come to cherish
Loves we will always remember
All wrapped up in these past four years
Making ourselves at home at Henry Abbott
Coming in as freshman, not knowing anything
But able to pick a trade to have behind us for the future
Moving on to our shop choices sophomore year
Willing to learn everything we could
Continuing to expand our knowledge junior year
Going out on the job and constructing buildings people would actually use
Then adding the final finishing touches senior year
Getting that work-study job you always wanted or heading off to college
We have been through so much in unison
Smiles and laughter
Tears and worry
All coming together at this decisive point
Our Graduation day
Look at how far weve come
We survived the past 36 months
Amidst all thats happening in the world around us
I behold the sea of blue caps and gowns
Adorning each of us on this special day
Awaiting that final moment
When we are no longer juveniles
But adults preparing to enter the world
