That time of year

Its that time of year again
the time when you are finishing the school year
when you say goodbye for the summer
maybe for longer
the time when you reflect on the past year
and everything that you have done
you think about the people you have just met
and the ones that you will never forget
the ones that you have known forever
and the ones that you are just starting to know
wow its been an interesting year
now you look forward to next year
and all the potential it holds
its nice to have an ending
but nicer to see the beginning
for those in high school
this is the start of your life
what you do from now on
is who you are
remember that for the next years
for now you are only a junior
its amazing what can happen
but remember to always be prepared
for good or for bad
this IS your ife
no matter what choices you make
make the ones that you think are best
but remember to listen to your heart every now and then

This poem is for all those juniors and possibly the seniors that are finishing their school year and looking forward to either their last summer as high school students or their first as college students. To all of you, have a wonderful summer and life.
