Language of Enchantment

MY GREAT NEPHEW>>>KIM'S SON>>>GINNY AND DALE'S GRANDSON

THE GRADUATE

It’s a time for beginnings
But also for endings
For boyhood to cease
For manhood to increase

It’s a time to be bold
To let the future unfold
It’s now your destination
This is your generation

It’s a time to be wise
To try the world on for size
But not forgetting the faith
Keep priorities straight

Do what’s expected of you
To your own self be true
Time to conquer all fears
But even real men shed tears

Keep your eyes open wide
Your family still at your side
And please be extra smart
Keep the Lord in your heart

Congratulations are due
We are so proud of you
Make the most of your days
You’ve arrived Alex Hayes!

Choose a good reputation over great riches;
being held in high esteem is better than silver or gold.
